The Secret Life Of Casualty

Chapter 23

It all happened in slow motion: the bullet from the gun flew through the air and lodged it's self in her shoulder and Ethan watched as his wife went limp and slipped from his arms as they danced.

"Lily" Ethan said in concern, his shouts alerting Zoe and Cal to the fact that Lily needed help

"What happened?" Asked Zoe, taking off her heels and assessing the damage as blood poured from her sholder. Zoe applied pressure while Cal got on the phone for an ambulance and Ethan cradled Lily in his arms, hoping he wasn't about to lose her.


The ambulance arrived quickly, having heard that it was one of their own and were now carefully lifting Lily on to a stretcher, putting more pressure on her wounds and getting her in to the ambulance, Zoe had gone ahead in a taxi so that she was one of the doctors.

The ambulance arrived and Dixie and Jeff acted quick getting her out of the ambulance and almost racing with herto the ED doors.

"Right, Jeff what have we got?" Asked Zoe, althrough she knew Lily she was now a patient and Zoe had to remain professional.

"This is Lily Hardy, 28, GSC 3, BP 60/90 " Said the paramedics pushing the stretcher along

Once in RESUS, Ethan refused to leave and was getting in the way of Zoe's treatment of Lily

"Ethan, you know the rules, you are not allowed to treat her. Go to the relatives room" Zoe told him, watching him leave.


While Lily was in surgery Ethan was pacing the staff room being kept updated by Zoe and Tom on Lily's condition.

"She'll be fine " Tom tried to reassure Ethan while he nodded, he appreciated the words at a tough and Tom left the staff room, leaving Ethan to his thoughts once more.
