An hour later the door was open

Everyone swarmed in.

A paramedic gently removed mason from Jess’s arms leaving the allotment with him.

Andrew gently lifted Jess up and carried her out to the ambulance.
“Bette I’ll go with Jess you go with Mason” Carmen stated
“I’ll go get Tina and Lisa” Andrew said rubbing Bette’s shoulder “Go”
Jace got in the Ambulance with Jess and Carmen
“Sorry but…”
“Look I’m fine I’m going with them okay” Jace stated
“Ok” The paramedic said not arguing
“Does she have any medical conditions?” The paramedic asked
“Yeah she’s epileptic she’s not had any medication in 36 hours maybe more” Carmen explained holding Jess’s hand
“What about you?”
“No I’m good, I don’t have any conditions” Jace said “Just worry about her”
The paramedic handed Jace a blanket.
Jace wrapped it around himself.
“Her heart rate is dropping Steve we need to move” The paramedic stated

3 hours later…
Carmen was walking up and down the waiting room as was Bette and Tina and Jace’s parents.
Lisa, Mark, Lee, Andrew and a few others sat looking at the floor.
“This is ridiculous why do we still not know anything” Tina asked walking over to the desk “Look this is beyond a joke now, we’ve been here three hours and we still haven’t a clue as to what’s going on?”
“let me chase it up what’s your child’s name?”
“What one we have three here!” Tina snapped
“Mason Kennard Porter, Jess Kennard Porter and Jace Anderson” Bette snapped
“Are you Jace’s parents?”
“No we are” Ian stated “Jace is their son in law”
“Ok let me just go find someone who can help” The receptionist got up
Five minutes later a doctor walked into the waiting room
“Hi I’m Doctor Friel I’m treating Mason, I’m afraid Mason is critical at the minute he is currently being prepared for surgery, we also had to resuscitate him, at the minute that’s all I can tell you”
“Can we see him? What about Jess and Jace?”
“Sorry I’m not treating them, as far as I’m aware Dr Torres is dealing with Jess but Jace I’m not sure on” The doctor explained “Dr Torres will come see you when she can”
“Can we see our son?” Bette asked
“Not at present I’m sorry I will come see you again shortly” Dr Friel said leaving the room
Lisa rubbed her tummy
“You okay?” Lee asked
“Yeah baby’s just kicking” Lisa sighed
Dr Torres walked into the room
“Bette, Tina I’m sorry it’s took me so long, Carmen you should be sitting”
“How’s Jess?” Carmen asked
“She’s stable, she has hypothermia and I’ve sedated her to keep her sleeping for the time being” Dr Torres explained
“Do you know who is treating our son?” Ian asked
“I am, Jace also has hypothermia, he’s awake and wants to see his wife, Lisa I’ll take you through”
“Can I see Jess?” Carmen asked
“Course you can, I’ll come back and get you when she’s been moved into her room okay, I won’t be long just be patient” Callie smiled “Has Dr Friel spoken to you?”
“Yes” Bette said “We know he’s going into surgery and he’s critical”
“I’m sorry” Callie sighed “I’ll do my best to keep you up to date, I obviously don’t have much information on Mason”
“Thanks Callie” Tina said
“Guys there is no point you all staying here no-one will get near them except immediate family” Dr Torres explained
“That’s fine were okay here” Mark said “We’re all family even if it’s not blood”
“Yeah what he said” Lee agreed
Lisa followed Callie into Jace’s room. Jace smiled seeing his wife. Lisa couldn’t help but smile back she walked over to Jace letting herself fall into his arms.
“My girl and baby okay?” Jace asked kissing her head
“Were good are you okay?” Lisa asked burying her head into Jace so she could hide her tears.
“Yeah they’re keeping me in for observation” Jace said “But I promise you I’m okay”
“Okay” Lisa held him tighter
“Hey shhh it’s okay, why you crying, I hate when you cry” Jace wiped Lisa’s tears away “How’s Jess and Mason?”
“Jess in a medical sedation or something don’t understand all their medical talk” Lisa sighed “Mason is critical he’s in surgery”
“I’m sorry baby”
“You’ve nothing to be sorry about” Lisa sighed
“How’s Bette and Tina?”
“Mama is doing what she usually does acting strong and pretending she’s indestructible and Mum is a mess, your parents are in the waiting room they are worried about you”
“I’ll see them in a bit I just wanted to see you and only you at the minute” Jace explained
