A/N-Another chappie from mom's POV, but whatever. I have to catch up with what's going on with Fleur. Lol.
--------
It was three weeks after we went into the hospital room, and every time we saw her (Greg and I alternated, so we both saw her every other day, and on weekends we went together.) she was looking more and more like her normal self. And she always had the strangest look on her face, as if she was completely content, and happy.
This morning was no different, I came to the desk, said hello to the nurse on duty (they had all learned my name by that time) and went in to see Katey and get a report on how she was doing. But when I came in to see her, she looked older, and even prettier than before. She looked just like a 16 year old. But she looked almost exhausted, and I was completely bewildered on why.
"Mary, could you come have a look at Katey?" I asked as I hurried back to the reception desk.
"What's wrong Mrs. Douglas?" She asked, getting up out of the chair behind the desk.
"Nothings Wrong, it's just, she doesn't look quite how people in a coma should look…" I said, unable to put into words how she looked.
Mary and I returned to the room, where she looked at Katey. "Oh, Mrs. Douglas, it's nothing to worry about. For some strange reason she gets this look on her face every day at this time." She smiled at me, and then left the room.
I looked puzzled at her face. She looked exactly as you did when you came home from a track meet or a Tennis match.
At this point the doctor came in and said, "It's odd, but sometimes when people are in a coma, it's like they're in a realistic dream." He smiled and took her blood pressure and checked her heart rate and everything else.
I stayed by her side for a while, just watching her face. And slowly, the look of exhaustion left her face. But suddenly a look of fright came to her face. I looked for the doctor, but he was in surgery, so I remained by her side, until I saw her facial expression calm down.
She looked completely peaceful, and I was relived. I sat back in my chair, and watched her heart beat go… but the more I watched it, the faster it seemed to be beeping. I looked over at Katey's face, and I saw her looking even more scared than before. I held her unbroken arm tightly, but I could still hear the think beeping faster, and I yelled for a nurse.
Stacey ran in, just as Katey started to shake uncontrollably. "Oh my god, is she having a seizure?" I asked, completely bewildered.
"Yes!" Stacey said, before running out the door to call for the doctor.

It was much longer than my other Mom POV's, and it would have been longer if I knew more about seizures.
Please review!
