She gets up and rushes to the door; she sticks her head out and sees Ray at the Admit desk. She yells at him to come.
"Ray! Get over here now!"
"What? What is it?" he moves round the desk confused.
"Quickly! She's bleeding out!" she looks worried as she runs back over to Sam.
"She?" Ray runs down the corridor and gets to the door he rushes in and sees Sam lying in the pool of blood. "Oh my god."
"Quick we need to get her to Trauma 1!"
Ray runs round to the right of Sam and bends down. He lifts her up and puts her on the bed next to them. (Here is the line 'arms of the angel' then it follows on from there.)
Abby pulls up the sides and starts wheeling it out Ray helping. They rush her along the corridor to Trauma 1. Luka is now at Admit and sees them wheeling someone in. He has no idea it is Sam.
"Ok, get Neela and DuBenko here. And call OB!"
Ray runs out as Chuny comes in.
"Oh my god. Abby what happened?" her eyes widen as she sees Sam lying covered in blood on the bed unconscious.
"Psych guy must have stabbed her." Abby muffled. She looks genuinely worried as she starts to check her vitals, hooking up machines as she goes.
Int. County General Hospital. Admit.
Luka sees Ray running out of the trauma room, searching for DuBenko and Neela and called to him.
"Ray you need any help in there?"
Ray runs off down the corridor shaking his hand in the air signalling to Luka 'no'. Luka misinterprets his gesture for 'don't ask now' and walks around the desk. He goes to the door and pushes it open, pulling on some gloves as he does.
"Luka..." Abby started.
He was still unaware of the identity of the person lying on the bed. "What? What is it? He looks over to the patient and sees Sam lying there covered in blood. "Oh my god. No! No!" He runs round the side of the bed and touches Sam's face. He cups it in his hands and looks at Abby. "No, what happened?" he asked, trying to find some comfort in the depths of distress.
"It must have been the Psych guy from earlier, I told her to go and give him his Meds." She said quietly.
"But that was over and hour ago." He replied, staring at her.
"I know." She whispered.
Holding Sam's face, Luka knew she must have been like this for over an hour. She'd lost pints of blood and god knows what else was happening to her. "No. This can't be happening." He declared, trying to make it reality.
Ray rushes back in with Jake, Neela and DuBenko. They run round the other side of the bed, looking like vultures and thieves at her back.
"Ok I want 2 Litres of O-Neg." Abby ordered. The monitors were beeping rapidly.
"Ok." Neela replied as she went to the phone.
"BP's dropping." Chuny stated.
"And call OB. She's gotta have this baby." Abby said, putting things in order, going through the protocol for a pregnant woman with a stab wound.
Luka looked at Abby dazed. "What? No, she can't she's only 5 months!" He exclaimed.
"Luka there's no way that baby can stay in there. There's damage to the womb."Abby told him.
"We're gonna need to intubate. She's not getting enough oxygen." Ray said. He moved around to the head of the bed, clicked open the tool and gets a tube. "Dr Kovac..." Luka looks up at him. He still has Sam's face in his hands. He strokes her face then let's go. Ray intubates and checks her chest with his Stethoscope.
"Done." Ray informed them.
"Her Sat's keep dropping." Chuny said quietly.
"Ok let me see." He moves to Sam's side and examines her wound. "It's gone straight through to the womb." The OB Doctor arrives followed by two nurses. They are carrying what looks like delivery equipment.
"Ok what do we have?" Dr Coburn asked.
"She's been stabbed in the abdomen, bleeding out, and she's 5 months pregnant." The heart monitor starts beeping rather fast. "Chuny push another litre in." Chuny hooks up another bag of fluid and stands back to watch, looking increasingly upset.
"Ok I'm gonna have to do an emergency C-Section."
His nurses unfold the tray they brought down with them and hand him a scalpel. He cuts the wound further, more blood pours out. Ray hands one of the nurses suction, she begins to suction up the blood. He puts the scalpel down and reaches inside Sam's open wound and pulls out a small baby. He puts it down on Sam's chest, it's motionless. "She has a baby girl."
The nurse hands him two clamps for the cord. He clamps it and she hands him the scissors. Luka holds out his hand to stop him.
"Wait." Dr Coburn looks up. "Can, can I do it?" He asked tentatively.
"Are you the father?" he asked unaware.
"Yes." He replied despondently.
"Sure." Dr Coburn hands him the scissors, as Luka steps nearer to his newborn child. He reaches out and cuts the cord. He hands the nurse the scissors and steps back, tears streaming down his face. The nurse lifts the baby up and moves it to a small cot near the door, they brought in with them. She puts it down and cleans it up with some towels. She looks over at the Doctor and shakes her head. The Doctor looks down then at Luka.
"I'm sorry. Your baby died." He whispered.
Luka looks devastated; his eyes are red and bloodshot his hair a mess. A tear trickles down his face as he looks at Sam lying helplessly on the bed in front of him.
"Ok, I'll stitch this up." DuBenko offered. Breaking the silence.
Doctor Coburn nods, and leaves, the two nurse's finish cleaning the small baby up and leave. DuBenko moves around to the right side of Sam and begins to stitch up her ruptured womb taking a needle and thread from the tray on the trolley next to him. The monitors regulate as DuBenko starts to stitch Sam up. Everyone watches all ultimately upset. Neela and Abby look ready to cry. Suddenly the monitor starts beeping loudly and rapidly. DuBenko looks up as Abby and Neela rush to Sam's side, unsure of what's gone wrong. Jake checks the monitors, then the fluids.
"Her Sat's have dropped again." Abby said.
"Damn it, there's another bust artery in here. I need suction!" DuBenko said. Ray hands him the suction as he begins to open up the wound again.
"Sam come on! You can fight this!" Ray exclaimed desperately.
"Sam, come on. Don't do this. It's my first back." Jake exclaimed under his breath.
"Sat's keep dropping."Neela announced.
"Damn it where the hell is it!" DuBenko yelled. Luka looks on wide eyed as DuBenko searches frantically in Sam's Abdomen for the cut artery that's causing her so much damage.
"Let me look!" Luka cried out rushing forward.
"Luka no! You know you can't treat her. You're in no fit state." Abby told him.
"Somebody's gotta do something!" he cried looking at her urgently. The monitors are beeping frantically mirroring his heartbeat. It stops. And begins to beep at a constant stationary sound.
"She's in VF!" Neela confirmed.
"Ok, get a crash cart!" Abby said frantically. Chuny wheels one over from the back corner of the room, as Abby picks up the paddles. "Charge to 200!" Chuny charges the paddles. "Clear!" Everyone steps away from the bed as Abby puts the paddles to Sam's chest. She shocks her.
"No change." Chuny said, tears now welling up in her eyes.
"Again at 300!" Chuny charges the paddles yet again.
"Charged." Chuny said.
"Clear!" Everyone is away from the bed as Abby shock's Sam yet again.
"Still no change." She too begins to cry. Ray looks on visibly upset by what he's witnessing. Jake closes his eyes, reflecting Ray. He turns around and walks straight out of the room too traumatised to hep.
"Again at 300!" Chuny charges the paddles yet again. "Clear!" She shocks Sam again. The monitor still reads a line and '0 BPM' along with 'Asistole' underneath. The music slowly comes to an end.
