Kerry awoke some hours later to quietness, she attempted to get of bed to see if she could help any of the other doctors out with patients, although she knew that they probably wouldn't let her help the out, but she had to ask anyway., After about 3 attempts at trying to get up she finally got out of the bed with support of the guard rails.
Once she was up, she leaned heavily into her crutch and exited the exam room. After taking a slow and painful trip to the lav she decided to check the board at admit. When she got there, a wave of nausea swept over her. She acknowledged Randi with a slight wave and stood in front of the board trying to think clearly. Her vision began to blur and before she knew it she was on the floor her entire body convulsing, her crutch lying lifelessly nearby
"Oh God Dr. Weaver, are you ok? Somebody get a doctor NOW!" Randi screamed. Kim lurking nearby came jogging over. She knelt down and began assessing Kerry. "Ok, support her head, we don't want it to hit the hard floor," A few seconds later Carter came waltzing over and nearly fell down in front of Kerry eager to help her. "Get me five of Ativan," Kim ordered Carter quickly turning Kerry's frothing mouth as to prevent aspiration.
"Get a gurney!" shouted Kim she listened to Kerry's heartbeat with her stethoscope, it was irregular because of the seizing. Carter was timing the seizure. It's was now up to 2 minutes. Kerry was still convulsing when they put her onto the gurney and took her to Trauma 2. Everyone was worried, especially Carter since he was really the only who knew what was going on. Kim was very worried she'd never seen a seizure before, although she should be used to them because she's a doctor, but of course she wasn't she was trying to help Kerry the best way she could.
Carter asked a nearby nurse to get him an intubation tray and an 8.0 et tube and as Kim supported Kerry's moving head Carter slid the tube down and quickly pumped in oxygen. Kerry's stats began to slowly improve and her convulsions became less severe. He sighed when she'd stopped and slowly wheeled her gurney off to the side. He then took a cloth and wiped away some remaining saliva from Kerry's lips.
Carter carefully lifted Kerry while Kim pumped the ambo bag. He then managed to get her back into her exam room and into her bed. Since his patient load was slowly increasing, he told Kim to stay with Kerry and that when she awoke to have him paged. Kim agreed and sat down in the nearby chair. Kim sat down and took Kerry's frail hand into hers. She watched as her coworker lay so helpless in the gurney. A tear rolled down her eye as she brushed a wisp of stray hair from Kerry's face.
