Ruthie got up and went out to the bus and sat down in her spot. The bus driver passed Katy's house once again.

' Gosh! How can somebody be sick for 8 days of school ?' Ruthie thought.

Soon everyone was ready for morning anouncements.

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you feel the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on
'cause I know I don't belong here in heaven...

Mrs. Gold explained that Katy was really sick and was staying at the Glen Oak Children's hospital, She gave Ruthie, Katy's room number and the times they could visit her.

As soon as Ruthie got home she ran into the kitchen. " Mommy I got good news!" Ruthie exclaimed.

" What's that, honey?" Annie asked with a smile on her face.

" That kid, Katy she's in the hospital and that means she won't be coming back for a while because she's sick! "
Ruthie said as she was relieved that she wouldn't have to deal with Katy's constant drooling.

Annie's smile dissappeared. " Ruthie that's a not a good thing, I got a call from Katy's "mom" and Katy has been asking you to visit her " Annie said as she saw the smile dissappear from Ruthie's face.

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way through night and day
'cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven...

Saturday morning at the hospital Katy's POV

Pain. Thats all I can think of right now. Mommy tries to help me by rubbing my back or reading me a story or putting in an Arthur video but that doesn't stop the aches in my body.

My heads been pounding and my tummy's really upset and my mommy say I'm dehydrated whatever that means.

Normal POV

Katy started sobbing from the pain all over her body. Soon after a few minutes later a doctor that Katy had not seen yesturday when she was brought into the emergency room yesturday night came in to check her.

" Hi Katy, I'm Dr. Mark and... this must be your mom Kayla? " Dr. Mark asked.

Katy couldn't respond, she was crying too hard. In fact she was crying so hard her face was as red as a cherry.

" Hi Kayla I understand that Katy came in with a severe gastrointestinal infection and has moderate cerebal palsy ?" Dr. Mark said looking at the notes the previous doctor wrote down.

" What are the symptoms ?" Dr. Mark asked.

" Nausea, diarrhea, fever, vomiting, muscle aches." Kayla said as she looked into the metal crib anxiously.

" Katy...Katy can you stop crying for second sweety I need to listen to your tummy okay?" Dr. Mark asked kindly.

Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart, have you begging please...begging please

Beyond the door there's peace I'm sure
And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven...

Dr. Mark carefully lifted Katy's shirt just enough so that her belly was exposed.

" This might be a little cold okay?" he stated. Katy gave off a moan as her filled with tears. The last thing Katy needed was something cold on her achy body.

The doctor paused and rubbed his shirt on the stephascope and then listened to Katy's bowels.

" Well her bowels are moving as much food as it can... meaning that's what's causing the diarrhea. You see since her bowels are turning her stool very watery and when that's moving really slowly it causes a back fire sending her food back up again" the doctor explained.

Katy's POV

' Water? Stool? Bowls? Food? What does all those things have to do with my tummy?' I thought angrily. ' How can they think about wanting me to have some water, a stool, a bowl and food... what can I use those things for I'm only 6 years old and I can't even stand up for that matter so how can I use a stool!

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you feel the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on
'cause I know I don't belong here in heaven...

Normal POV

" Ready guys?" Eric asked Ruthie and Simon as they headed into the hospital
