He held her hand the whole trip, talking to her, moving her hair slightly, wishing she would look at her or at least show a sign she was going make it. Kim got the phone and called Mercy, asking for instructions. Getting the instructions she said that they were 2 minutes out and hung up. The rapid beeping of the portable monitor only distracted Bosco from his priority, making sure Mercedes could hear him.
When I opened my eyes, I realized the agonizing pain I was in and the stinging from various things getting in my eyes. I saw light and heard voices, once I opened them enough to focus I felt a kiss on my forehead and saw Mo. He was crying, I wasn't sure why. I realized I was in a bus. He said something about being ok and that I was gunna make it. All I could do was try to tell him something. Remembrances of the past 30 something hours and what had happened hit me like a ton if bricks. He moved close to my mouth and I whispered.."Don't let Ma be mad at me." Bosco looked down at her and shook his head, smiling.
"She never was, Love.. She never was." Wit that line the bus lurched to a stop and the rear doors opened. Everyone piled out as they raced her stretcher into the ER. Bosco ran beside it not letting go of her hand as she stared up at him. Doc barked vitals as they pushed her into the trauma room. The doctors and nurses moved around Bosco, knowing not to even try to move him from her side. They had seen the 2 Boscorelli's together. They were like white on rice. Always there for each other, either together or close by. Bosco looked down at Mercedes as her grip loosened slightly. Her mouth moved but no words were uttered. He leaned down in time to hear "I Love You." As she finished a weak agonized sigh escaped her lips and a slight gurgling sound came out. HE lifted his head in time to see blood pour from her mouth and her eyes roll back into her head. His cried out as 2 alarms went off on the monitors. The Nurses moved him out the door as he struggled.
"She's Coding!" was that was heard as the doors opened to let Bosco out. He turned to watch as Davis, Sully, Faith, Kim, Carlos, Doc, Alex, Jimmy, Walsh, Christopher, Lieu and Swertzky came up behind him. He pressed his hands to the glass crying out her name, as he watched them suction the blood from her mouth and intubate her. One of the 3 doctors in there started to do chest compressions as the doors opened and closed to let various people in and out. Bosco watched in horror as they cut his sisters side chest open and insert a chest tube, the more he watched the more scared he got.
He couldn't blink.. watching the blood puddle on the floor form her chest as they worked on her.. He watched the monitor knowing a 185 HR was not good and watched them wheel the cart over to the bed. Watching them place the paddles on his sisters chest and her body jump as they shocked her was too much for him. He sunk to the floor, shaking un controllably. HE closed his eyes as heard them shock her again, only more powerful. Suddenly the doors burst open and the bed was rushed down the hallway. One nurse squeezing the bag attached to the tube down her throat, 3 doctors, the trauma surgeon, an assist, and the ER doctor ran with her as Nurse Proctor came out.
"They moved her to the OR. Her lung is collapsed, which is what the chest tube was for. She has 6 broken ribs, and internal bleeding somewhere in her abdomen. The gash on her isn't serious, but to be honest.. it doesn't look good. she lost most of her blood to internal bleeding." Suddenly Bosco jumped up and grabbed Proctor, slamming her into the glass, making it spider out.
"Don't say that! She's gunna make it! She's survived through everything else! She will survive this!" With that he dropped her to the floor and ran after the elevator to the Surgical waiting room.
