A/N: Sorry for the late reply

Chapter 19

It had been 2 days since Sara had been admitted to the hospital and Grissom sat with Sara as she rested. He sat there with a sleepy Luca in his arms as Nick had just dropped him off. Sara was just beginning to stir

"Hey there" said Grissom

"Hi, what time is it"

"Almost 6pm, you have been asleep for nearly 5 hours"

"When did your bring Luca in" asked Sara looking at the ceiling

"Not long ago, the nurses said it was fine. Here hold him"

"No thank you, I would prefer not to see him, please take him away" said Sara turning her back and with tears coming down her face.

Grissom placed Luca back in the pram and went straight over to Sara. Cupping her face and wiping away her hears

"Hey, what is wrong"

"I don't want him to see me like this"

"Sara, he needs his mother, you don't understand but he is missing you, come on"

Just then Luca started crying. Grissom picked him up but just could not console him. Slowly Sara turned to face them

"Try this" said Sara and with that Grissom placed him in her arms and within seconds he was settled.

"See he really needs you"

"How do you settle him without me" asked Sara with Luca sound asleep in her arms

"I let him sleep with your night gown as he loves the smell"

Sara sat there and smiled.

"Have you spoken with the doctor yet" she asked

"Dr King will hopefully be in soon"

*******************************************************

3 hours later and Catherine came and collected Luca from Sara and Grissom but promised to bring him back as the nurses were trying to arrange for him to stay the night

Just then Dr King arrived.

"How are you feeling Sara"

"Tired"

"Ok the blood transfusion has not worked the way I wanted it to so we are going to wait a few more days and test your blood count and then see where we go from there. Your blood pressure is still very low and there is a slight infection in your lungs so we still need to keep you on the oxygen"

"When can I go home" pleased Sara

"Not today, maybe by the end of the week or early next week if you start responding to treatment. Sara if you are not improved by next week then your next chemo will be done here so we can take care of you"

Sara just nodded

"How many more cycles do I have left"

"Another 2"

"Good cos that is it, I am too tired of this" said Sara

"Come on Sara, don't give up, Luca needs you" stated Grissom

"Gil I am just so tired I just wonder how much I have left"

"Sara you are doing great. I will be back tomorrow to check on you. Try and get some rest"

Grissom looked to Sara

"Will be back in a minute" said Grissom giving her a kiss on the forehead

"Dr King, is she really ok"

"Gil, she is very sick but she is responding to the treatment just not with the results I would like, remember she has been through a lot with the baby and is just very tired. I would not recommend Luca staying yet as I think she is too tired to tend to him during the night"

"Thanks"

Grissom stood there for a moment he was really scared of losing his wife and the mother of his son, he really needed her to keep going and he was willing to help her no matter what.
