Chapter 6:
What would happen if there was a storm, would you take shelter, would you work at the scene, or do you just disappear with your family?
It has been 5 hours since my beautiful daughter Ellis was born. She looks just like her aunt Amelia and myself. Now that Meredith and I have 3 children we are going have a hard time in the next few months between our careers, my surgeries I still that to have due to the accident, and I lawsuit against the truck driver who wasn't paying attention to the road and was texting and driving. Meredith and I decided to sue him because he took away my lively hood which was doing operations on patients that have brain injuries, but because of him I have a brain injury and I can't operate in the or without Amelia in the room. I just saw a news report that a major storm that is similar to a hurricane in the Atlantic Ocean. It is rare to have a storm that is a hurricane in Washington.
Meredith wasn't comfortable having me at home with the 2 children and our niece alone in the storm because there was not another adult there with the children if something happens to me. Dr. Webber would let Meredith come home after she filled out paper work revolving around the nurse that didn't want to do anything when Ellis was born. We filled out the paperwork and the board told us to go home and enjoy Ellis. On our way home I got a call from Amelia to bring Sally to the hospital so she could see her daughter as Kat is in critical shape and might not make it through the night, because Sally was still with Callie I had Meredith call her and have her bring Sally to Amelia. Zola, and Bailey were back at the house with Maggie who got off shift at 6:00 this morning and picked up the children. As we were pulling up to the house we saw Maggie with Zola, and Bailey with a sign saying Welcome Home Mommy and baby Ellie.
Both of us were touched that the children were excited about Ellis. "Welcome home baby Ellie it's finally time for you to meet your brother and sister" explained Meredith who was excited to introduce the new baby to her siblings. Bailey wasn't as happy as Zola to see Meredith with another baby in her arms. "Bailey what's wrong don't you like your baby sister Ellie" I asked. "No Mommy and you replaced me and now I gonna runaway be someone else's boy" explained my 3 year old son. "Bails nobody replaced you we still love you even if our attention is on your baby sister" I explained. Bailey was still upset and I felt bad for him as he was a mommy's boy until I got in my accident and all of Meredith's attention was on me and then she found out she was pregnant with Ellis. I think that Ellie is going to be a daddy's girl as she stops crying when I hold her but she's only 8 hours old.
As I was going to bed I got a call from Amy saying that I need to come to the hospital to be there for her. I told Meredith that I was going to the hospital and she asked what was going on. "Meredith I don't know what's going on but whatever it is Amy is upset about it" I explained. "Derek is Kat dead" asked Meredith. I didn't know how to answer that question because I didn't know how her health was. As I got to the hospital I saw Amy crying with Sally in her arms, and around the corner was Owen who was also crying. Owen who is a solider was crying so it must be serious. "Amy what's wrong" I asked. "Derek I don't know how to tell you this but Kathryn Ann Shepherd Hunt is in critical condition and may not make it through the rest of her surgery" explained Owen. I was scared for my niece because if she died it would be awful for Amelia. After I found out Kat's condition I went into the hospital church and prayed. I normally don't pray but ever since my accident 10 months ago I have become religious and have been taking Zola, and Bailey to church be hide Meredith's back.
This Sunday is going to be hard because Meredith is going to be at home with baby Ellie. I hoping that Kat will survive the surgery and she will be able to play with her twin sister, and cousins. We waited 30 minutes for another update on Kat when Alex came out with Kat who was only hooked up to a heart monitor. "Alex is she dead" asked my helpless sister. "No she is going to be fine Christina was able to fix the hole in her heart and her brain bleed went down so we didn't have to operate on her brain" explained Alex. After I got an update I called Meredith who was crying because Ellie woke up Bailey, who is having some issues with Meredith paying attention to Ellie. I explained to Amelia that I would go a pick up Meredith and the kids and bring them so if anything happens like the storm we will all be together.
