(I greatly appreciate the reviews I got, they are very much appreciated, I hope you keep on reading, the best is yet to come)

Begins where we left off…

Rachel and Ross are talking before Ross takes a nap.

"… Ross, I can't say my goodbyes, it's just too damn hard."

"So you think I'm going to die?" She looks down, "Look, you don't have to say goodbye, I just want to know that you love me."

"But Ross, you know I love you right?"

"Yeah, I just…"

"Ross, listen to me okay? I have never loved anyone even close to how much I love you. We have 4 beautiful boys together, a girl on the way." Stresses, "I have never been more happy. You know, I honestly can't love you anymore because I love you literally with my whole heart and even more so that my heart could burst. I get butterflies in my stomach every time you walk in the room. I love you so much that you'd think I love no one else, which don't get me wrong, I love our family and friends, but you…you are my reason for living."

Ross is touched, "There, that was what I wanted for a goodbye. Everything you said Rachel means so much thank-you."

"Well I love you, and I'm sorry if you had to question if I did or not, but that was not a goodbye, because you're not going to die." No one says anything, "You should get some rest. I love you Ross, I truly do." She's about to leave.

"Rachel, wait."

"What?"

"Come here" He sticks out his hand (AN: He can move a bit, just work with me here : ) and she takes it and he pulls her into a kiss, she pulls away with tears in her eyes, "There's one more thing… If I do slip in to a coma and never come out, I want you to know that I want you to be happy okay? If someone comes along and you think that you can't see him because of me, move on okay I really want nothing but happiness for you."

Rachel starts to tear up, "I don't think that'd be possible, for many reasons. You get some rest, we'll see you when you wake up." She leaves.

(AN: Okay well I hope everyone's enjoying this so far. I'd like to point out that I am not a doctor, so some stuff might seem unreal because I'm not sure about a lot of medical conditions and so on, so I apologize for anything that might seem impossible. On another note, I know it might be hard to picture how Ross looks…I mean, I can't even picture it. He looks like he's in tons of pain. Anyway, I read that when a person slips into a coma, the person is put on life support, along with EEG probes that allow doctors to observe brain wave activity, if that makes sense to anybody that's great.)

(Back to the story, sorry, I just wanted to let everybody know incase you were curious) Well okay now I didn't know how to write this all in, so a summary of what is happening. Ross, as you guys probably already knew was going to happen, slips into a coma. He's on life support and the whole works. Rachel, as you can imagine, would be devastated during this whole time right? Well she has her days, where she feels like there is no hope and pretty much cries uncontrollably the whole day. And other days where she is surprisingly in a very good mood, and a few days where she's filled with all kinds of emotions, also remember she is pregnant.

I know I don't talk too much about her kids, but the grandparents take turns watching the younger ones. Caleb is the oldest one, he helps out a lot, you know with helping getting them ready for school and all. They'll have a part later in the story. Caleb and Lukas (Second oldest, he's 13) visit the hospital almost every day. The two younger one's visited maybe just two or three times, but never to see daddy. Since Rachel hasn't left the hospital once, the two youngest visited so Rachel could see them. She demanded that she would not leave incase Ross were to wake up. Her work gave her a leave of absence, as long as she needed) That's a kind of big summary, but that's all you need to know.)

It's been like a month since Ross has been in a coma

Rachel is in Ross' room, talking to him

"Come on Ross, its been 27 days since you slipped into this coma, I think it'd be a great thing if you woke up now."

Doctor Hayward walks in with Ross' chart. He has to ask her probably the hardest question

"Rachel, um I need to talk to you about Ross' condition."

Rachel senses that it's bad news, "Okay..."

"It's been almost a month since…"

Rachel corrects him, "… 27 days."

"It's been 27 days since Ross slipped into a coma, you have to think about if you want to take him off life support or not. It would be to see if he's strong enough to live without it. It's a very hard deci…"

Rachel doesn't have to think about it, and cuts him off; getting kind of upset that he would ask her that, "No I won't take him off life support, that'd be like asking me if I want my husband to die. He will be on that thing until he wakes up, do you understand?" Calms a bit and turns and looks at Ross, "I can feel it, he's going to wake up today."

Hayward feels bad for saying this, "Rachel, I'm sorry, but you've been saying that for the last 26 days"

"Well he will not be taken off life support until he wakes up, okay?"

"Well just think about it okay?"

Rachel firmly replies, "I do not have to think about it, he's going to come back."

"I just want you to think about what's best for him…not you. Rachel, do you know what kind of post-traumatic symptoms he could live with? He could forget his memory. I'm not talking about just forgetting a few people, I'm talking about forgetting how to talk, how to eat. He could be paralyzed." Rachel never realized about symptoms he could suffer from. She gets very quiet. Dr. Hayward feels guilty about making her think about his outcome but she has to know, "Well can you think about it?"

Rachel is being stubborn and starts yelling, "I don't care, okay I don't care! I will not take him off life support for as long as I live." Calms a bit, "Look, I have 4 almost 5 children, I can not do it without Ross being alive." Calms down, but still irritated, "Now will you leave me and my husband alone?"

Hayward, trying to be gentle but making a point, might seem kind of insensitive, says, "If Ross comes back, he could be so screwed up Rachel, that you wouldn't be taking care of 5 children, you'd be taking care of 6." Hayward leaves.

Rachel can't believe she just had that conversation with him, because she never wanted anything more in her life than for Ross to wake up. She's actually thinking what Doctor Hayward told her to do, 'think about him, not you.' She also couldn't get that last thing he said out of her mind. 'you wouldn't be taking care of 5 children, you'd be taking care of 6. Those two things Hayward commented on, kept replaying over and over again in her head. ' Maybe taking him off life support was the best solution' she thought. But then she shook her head and snapped out of it, how could she even think about putting Ross' life at risk. She was already upset because she did say before that she wouldn't let Ross sleep if it was at risk of putting him in a coma. She just hates that she even has to think about taking her husband off life support or not. After thinking about both the pros and cons, she had her decision. She looks at Ross and smiles.

A half hour goes by. Dr. Hayward feels bad for what he said to Rachel and decides to go apologize to her. Walks in to Ross' room.

"Look Rachel, about earlier… I'm sorry... I can't imagine what you must …"

Rachel cuts him off, "I've made my decision."

Hayward is surprised that she thought about it he asks… "I thought you already made up your mind."

"Well, I thought about what you said and after looking at the pros and cons of all this, I have decided that," She takes a deep breath. It hurts her so much to say this, "that we should pull the plug."

Hayward is surprised, "What? You're, you're sure about this?"

Rachel nods, "I kept on thinking about what you said… about what's best for him, and that I could be taking care of 6 children. I just know that this is the best decision for him. It kills me to talk about this but lets just get this over with."

Hayward isn't sure where to start because he was surprised at Rachel's, almost sudden, turn-around. "Well, we, we need to fill out some paper work before…"

"Right. Well lets make it fast before I change my mind, huh?" Surprisingly she is not bawling her eyes……yet, anyway, I think she's just too shocked at herself for making this decision, but she keeps telling herself 'it's all for the best, it's all for the best…' . They walk out.

(I'm going to end it there, for now. please let me know what you thought. Did it bring a tear to your eye? Anyway reviews are greatly appreciated, good or bad.)
