Date: 2-15-2011 (One Day After Lucky's Birth)
Action: Like thunder, a distraught nurse storms into Peyton's recovery room. Her hysteria awakens Peyton (sleeping in a bed) and Lucas (sleeping in a chair).
The Nurse (shouting): Lucky is in serious condition
Lucas (jumping out of the chair): What?!
The nurse: Lucky's health is deteriorating
Peyton (struggling out of bed): I must see my baby
Lucas (helps Peyton into a wheelchair): I will take you to her
The nurse: Peyton should be resting, but it is what it is.
Scene: The Neonatal Intensive Unit
Lucas (stares down at Lucky sleeping in the crib): My angel
Peyton (worried): Lucky was just born yesterday. How could she be sick already?
A Doctor: Lucky has developed Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. This means left ventricle of her heart is underdeveloped. Surgery will be able to save her life.
Lucas: I want Lucky to have the surgery
Doctor (to Peyton): What is your opinion, Mrs. Scott?
Peyton: I agree with my husband
Doctor: So the decision is final then
(The doctor and his nurses escort Lucky to the emergency room where the heart surgery is performed. Anxiously, Lucas and Peyton wait for the procedure to be over. They can't imagine life without Lucky. They overcame a lot of obstacles to have her and now they were losing hope. Their fear disappears when they see Lucky whose heart is working properly again.)
