Author's Note: I started to write this before season two started so Colin is alive and Madison doesn't exist. I couldn't decide if I even wanted to post it because of this but figured why not so tell me what you think and review

"Hello, Edna I need to ask you a favor."

"Does it have anything to do with Ephram?

"How did you know?"

"I was over at juniors and Colin came over, that must have been one bad asthma attack. The poor kid was really shook up."

"It was bad. I need you to come over and sit with him while I go get some medicine for him. I thought that is was just allergies at first and then the asthma attack happened and now he is running a fever of 103*. He has really got me worried. I was kind of hoping that you would come over, he keeps getting wheezy and I want a medical professional here in case he goes into another attack."

"I'll be over soon sparky."

"Thanks Edna. I appreciate it."

"Will I have the little soldier too?"

"No. She was really shook up after what happened in the park and I want to talk to her."

"Ok Doc, I'll be over in a few minutes."

"Thanks again for coming over Edna."

"It's no problem Doc."

"Come on Delia, it's time to go."

Edna decided to check on Ephram before settling in front of the TV. When she reached his room, she could hear his breathing in the hallway. Once inside the room, she didn't like what she saw. The kid was sweating profusely and gasping for breath, but was still asleep. She put her palm to his forehead.

"Oh Jesus, you're burning up!"

She immediately took the poor boy's temperature, it was almost 105*. She grabbed the phone and called Andy's cell.

"Andy Brown."

"Doc, you need to get home now!"

"Edna what's wrong?"

"Ephram's fever spiked to 105* he needs to get to the hospital now!"

"I'm turning around, and I'll be there in less then five minutes!"

"Ephram is really sick, isn't he?"

"Yea sweaty he is, but we're going to take him to the hospital and they're going to help him get better."

Andy pulled into the drive and bolted from the car as soon as he could get it stopped. He nearly tripped running up the stairs. Inside Ephram's room, Edna was holding him in a sitting position, with cold compresses on pulse points trying to get his fever down. Ephram was limp in her arms like a rag doll.

"Oh my god!"

"His pulse is racing, Andy, and he is beginning to get cyanotic."

Andy grabbed the phone and dialed 911. The ambulance couldn't get there fast enough for Andy's licking. If things didn't change and soon, Ephram was going to arrest, and Andy knew he was not mentally prepared to give his son CPR.

I'm sorry that this chapter was so short, but it is getting late and I'm starting to fall asleep at my computer. I should have the third chapter up in the next few days, PLEASE review.
