When Sam and Josh got to the hospital, it was a mad house. Tons of people
were there asking about someone they knew on the train. Sam and Josh stood
in line to ask about CJ and Toby when they heard an ambulance pull up.
"We need everyone out of the way, please!" The nurse screamed.
"44 year old male, massive head wound and internal bleeding. We had to remove a five inch pole from his side, but we've been having a hard time controlling the bleeding," The paramedic said as they rushed him in.
"Get him up to an OR stat!" The doctor ordered. "How long has it been since he had a pulse?"
"We had it back before we got here. We just lost it about two minutes ago."
"Toby!" Sam yelled after recognizing him.
"Sir, you need to stay back," The nurse stopped him. Josh ran after Toby as the nurse kept Sam behind.
"Toby!"
"Sir, get back here," The nurse yelled.
"Toby, come on!" Josh yelled as they rushed him down the hall. Josh didn't get far before a doctor stopped him.
"I'm sorry sir, they need to work," The doctor said.
"That's my friend," Josh pointed out. "He's going to be okay?"
"I'm sure he will sir," The doctor walked him back to Sam. "Are you two family?"
"Yes, we are," Sam nodded.
"I'll let the nurse know to keep you updated," The doctor said. "Until then, please have a seat."
"I'm sorry," Josh looked down. "It's just."
"I understand. It's fine," The doctor said while walking up to the nurse's desk.
"Is there anyone here for a Claudia Cregg?" A doctor walked out.
"Yes," Josh and Sam jumped up and walked over.
"Hi, my name is Doctor Richards. Ms. Cregg is just getting out of surgery. Would you follow me please?" He said while taking them down the hall. "She had some major blows to the left side of her head. She also had some internal bleeding and a ruptured lung. We were able to fix all the main problems in surgery, but with the blow to her head, it put her into a coma. She also lost a lot of blood, but we were able to give her a transfusion."
"Is she going to be okay?" Josh asked.
"She's not out of the woods until she wakes up."
"Can we see her?" Sam asked.
"Soon. Once we move her to a room, we'll let you two in. But until then, you can wait in this waiting room. It's not as busy."
"Thank you."
"Are you from the White House?"
"Yes, we are," Sam nodded.
"Okay, I'm going to go check on Ms. Cregg and also check Mr. Ziegler for you. I should be back in a few minutes with more information."
"Thank you Doctor," Sam said.
"No problem. There's a phone here if you need to make some calls."
"Thanks," Josh nodded.
"I'll be back with some information on Mr. Ziegler."
