Heres the next chapter if I don't get any more reviews ill take it as you don't like the story and stop it.
It had been a month since the accident and lucky anoth they had got the guy last
week. Today Tom was finally aloud to leave he had his own wheel chair he had
stiches to his head but other than that he was ok. Sam and him was in reception
when he pulled something he bought the day before the accident and then said,
"I didn't plan it like this and I would be getting on one knee but we both
know what would happen if I tried but here I go Samantha Nicholas from the day I
met you and said the cheeses chat up line ever I have loved you and you have
been with me through all this so I was wondering will you marry me?" Tom
asked
"Yes, yes hundred times yes"
At that point Fletch started whistling and even the patients were clapping even
Dylan was maybe just maybe he has a hart. They got to Toms home and Sam had the
biggest smile on her face. As soon as they opened the door Toms Husky puppy
called Charlie came running up to him Fletch had had him at his house but when
found Tom was leaving the hospital had dropped him back home so he would be
there when he gets home. "Zoe said I can go back to work on Monday as long
as I get rest over the weekend Sam you know you make me the happiest man on
earth" he said
"What are you after"
"Nothing" he replied but she gave him one of those stairs and he
replied
"Nothing but some food would be nice"
"I knew there was something is Mexican rice ok the stuff from Iceland"
"Yeah you know my favourite thing is Mexican"
It had been two days and they hadn't stopped talking about the wedding they
decided they wanted it as so as so they planned on two to four months' time.
Were Tom wouldn't be able to change in work into his scrubs he now had a big supply
of them in his house and he's been hoping no one throws up on him at work. But
who knows.
"Wake up hunny" Sam said gently shaking his shoulders he woke up
straight away and turned his body to one side picking up his legs to the side
if the bed before replying 'good morning' and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
Lucky he was a strong man so it was easy to get onto the wheel chair Sam had
put her house up for sale and has been packing.
"I'm just nipping in the shower" Tom said. Lucky anoth when they got
the news he was paralyzed they got a builder in to renovate it so it all would
be easy to access and they had it all finished for when he got out. It had been
half an hour since they woke up and now 7:30 they had to be in work for 8 they
decided to start going not knowing how long it would take because of the wheel
chair. But they got to the ED only 10 minutes late which was Sam's fault
because she stepped in dog poop half way from Toms house so they had to go back
to get new shoes. They walked in and saw all the doctors and nurses in the
staff room and they both new what they were most likely talking about. They went
in there and no one noticed
"So be as nice as possible he probably don't wanna talk about it" Zoe
said
Tom gave a cough and they all looked
"Just letting you guys no I just wanna be treated like I used to" he
said before going out to find his first patient. He went to the reception and
called out,
"Ben Oakwood please" he called and a young boy and his mum walked up
to him,
"If you would like to follow me" he had strange looks off the mother
but I think she could see that it happened recently because he still had
stiches on his face. He lead them into cubicles and told the boy to hop up on
the bed Tom lowered the bed because he couldn't reach at the height it was at,
"What seems to be the problem" the boy was about to reply but the mum
butted in,
"He was playing football and hurt his arm and he's been getting really bad
pains in his belie after a ball got hit into his stomach"
"So you're a footy fan?"
"Yes" the boy replied
"Who do you support?"
"Liverpool"
"Me and you both, may I look at your arm?" The little boy nodded
"Do you play football?" The boy asked
"I did but I can't anymore"
"Why?" The boy asked
"Ben stop" the mum said
"No, no its ok, I got ran over last month and now I can't walk"
"Oh"
"See Ben it what happens when you run across roads" the mum said cheekily
"For your information it was a hit and run and I was at a crossing and the
car came zooming up" at that point Tom was tamping and just left the
cubical Zoe saw him,
"Tom what's happened you look like thunder"
"All I'm saying I'm not treating that patient with his mum there." He
said that and went to the staff room he went to his locker and punched it
adding another dent into it by then Zoe had already told Sam what had happened
but Sam was really busy and asked Fletch to see if he was ok. Fletch walked in
and went by Tom and placed his hand on his shoulder
"You all right Mate?"
"Yeah never been better" he said before going to make a coffee
"Want one?"
"Yeah sure" Fletch replied
"Thanks for looking after the dog"
"It's my pleasure but I think you may be having my kids about because they
fell right in love with him"
"I'll have them any time you've done so much for us this last month, here
you go" he handed him the coffee
"What are mates for ai" he said then carried on "how did your
folks take the news?" Tom kept quiet,
"You haven't told them have you"
"I know it sounds stupid but I'm scared they always have thought of me as
the bullet proof kid because no matter what happed to me I would always come
out without a single cut... then this happens"
"There your parents they will except you"
"But the thing is there not my real parent" Tom just thought what he
had just said and regretted it straight away
"What you mean"
"I'm adopted"
"Oh how long were you in care"
"From when I was 1 till I was 12"
"Do you know who your real parents are?"
"Nope and I don't really wanna no"
"Liston mate I gotta go back to work pub after work no ifs no buts got
it" Tom just simply nodded his head and went back to work he decided just
to do paper work so at the little island type thing he got all the paper work
he needed. Sam was treating a girl called Cass and a boy called Rory.
"Tom"
"Uh hu"
"What do you think I should do next" she said showing him the x rays
of Rory's".
"CT scan"
"But that could damage his eyes"
"Ok an MRI"
"That would still damage his eyes"
"Then why ask me"
"Less of it"
"You're not my mum"
They started arguing really bad now people just starred
"Well you can sleep in your own home tonight" Tom said
"I can't it's been sold"
"Its only been 3 days"
"Well that shows how better my old home was compared to your dump"
"If you're going to be like this give me that ring back" he said
pointing to the wedding ring she chucked it on the floor knowing he wouldn't be
able to pick it back up.
Tom stormed into the staff room Fletch came in after seeing what happened,
"Do you wanna stay at mine tonight you can bring Charlie we got a spare
room"
"Yeah that would be great thanks mate"
It was the end of Toms shift and he went home to get what he needed and got
Charlie and got some food for him and went to the ED to meet Fletch he tied
Charlie to the wheel chair and Charlie basically pulled him there,
"Ready mate" Fletch said and they made their way to Fletches home it
was really quite and a little awkward. They got there and they were greeted by
one of Fletches children Adam,
"All right Adam Toms going to stay with us for a while and so is
Charlie"
"Yay Charlie" Adam said and ran into the living room.
"Want a beer mate" Fletch asked
"Go on then"
They were just through the second bottles and they looked at the clock 12:00.
"We better hit the hay mate" Fletch said
"Yep were am I sleeping?"
"Downstairs first door on the left"
"Thanks" Tom said before calling Charlie and going to his room.
It was the morning and Tom had only just fall asleep all through the night he
had just been thinking of what had happened Fletch opened the door and saw that
he was asleep and went to get a black marker he drew a giant moustache and a
mono brow took a picture then left him to sleep he was going to make up some
story about him throwing up or something because he heard Tom mumbling last
night so he knew he didn't get any sleep last night. He said his good byes to
his family and left for work.
"Fletch where's Tom I heard he was at yours?" Zoe questioned
"He was throwing up so he's still at my house"
"Ok that's fine"
Fletch walked into the staff room and Sam asked him straight away
"Where is he?"
"At my home"
"Thought he was going to be too much of a chicken to come in"
"For your information he has been throwing up every were"
"Just excuses in my eyes"
Back with Tom
I haven't been feeling well all morning I have been getting pain all in my
privates like real sharp pain. I just went to the toilet and I saw a lump I
have to phone the hospital right now. I picked up my phone and called them not
the ED because I don't want them knowing,
'Hello I need an appointment ASAP' I told them all the details and they said to
come in this afternoon but the only bad thing was to get to the place I got to
go through ED and at least some people would see me.
Everyone was now gone I put Charlie in the garden and set off to the hospital.
He got into the ED and Sam saw him and stormed over Tom was so pale and had
bags under his eyes,
"So you were pulling the sickie" Sam said
"I don't have time for this I got an appointment to make sure my heads
ok" he just carried on. He went just outside of the room. When his name
got called they took a look took some blood and said they would phone him. He
just got to the car park when he had a huge pain in his stomach and he just
passed out and fall out of his chair. Fletch saw this and ran to get help. Zoe
and a couple of others ran out and got a trollie and got him on there they had
just got him into resus when they heard him starting to gag,
"Everyone turn him on his side he's going to through up" they did so
and it went all on Fletch's new shoes. Sam saw this and came in,
"What happened?"
"Found him in the car park what was he doing here?"
"I saw him earlier he said he had an appointment but I can't remember what
for"
At that point Tom started to wake back up
"Hey Tom you alright" Fletch asked
"I... I guess so"
"Tom Sam said you had an appointment can you tell us what for because the
one for your head are next week"
"I don't wanna say"
"Do you want us to go and you tell Fletch" Tom nodded. They all left
the room bar Fletch,
"What's up mate?"
"This morning I had really bad cramps in my you no were I went to the
toilet and there was a lump."
"Do they know if it's cancerous?"
"There phoning me back" right at that point Toms phone rang he
answered it his face went pail. As soon as he hung up Fletch asked
"Not good news is it" Tom shock his head
"Do you want me to tell Zoe?" Fletch asked and Tom just simply nodded
and Fletch went outside to Zoe,
"Zoe can I have a word" he whispered. She gave a nod and lead him to
her office
"What did he say"
"Well he said basically he wasn't feeling well a lot of pain down stairs
he went to toilet and found a lump he phoned the hospital and got an
appointment and he went in and they said they would phone him back. They just
did when we were in there and they confirmed its cancer" he replied slowly
whispering and the end. It took a couple of minutes for Zoe to take this in and
she finally replied
"What are they going to do about it" Zoe questioned. But just as he
was about to answer Dylan busted in
"Its Tom he's gone into cardiac arrest". As soon as these words came
out Fletch and Zoe rushed to resus Zoe then said,
"Phone surgery see if they have a place"
"What why does he need surgery" Sam questioned
Zoe and Fletch looked at each other and Zoe then nodded to Fletch telling him
to tell her, "He's got prostic cancer"
"What why didn't he tell me" Sam said still in shock well she saw the
introbating Tom
"He only found out this morning"
"Guys we got to get him to surgery or we will lose him" Zoe said.
They all started to prep him when Dylan came off the phone
"There's no room in surgery but there are two free surgeons and there on their
way down" every one side with relief when he said they were coming down.
And just at that point they came running in only keeping some people aka Zoe,
Fletch, Sam and Dylan. They got started straight away it was a quite complex
operation but hopefully it will save his life. There were high tensions in the
room but when the Surgeon asked Fletch to stich up. They new it was finally
over... until...
The machines started beeping and Tom was going into cardiac arrest there's got
to be something there missing. They started doing CPR and Zoe ordered another
CT once they got him stable.
