Life is all that matters – ch. 03
“Baby sis, eat something. Alice is coming to drive you to the hospital and Shane is coming to stay with Angelica until Sonjya arrives. I’m going to the Planet and then to the hospital.”
——————————————————————————————————
When Bette and Alice arrived to the floor where Tina was hospitalized they saw Caroline Kennard pacing nervously in the hall. Caroline was a beautiful woman on her early 40′s, and a good observer could say that she and Tina were related despite of her brown hair.
“Is something wrong, Caroline?”
“I don’t think so Alice. They took Tina to do some exam. The doctor will talk with us afterwards.”
The three women stood in the middle of the corridor in front of the Intensive Care Unit entrance staring each other. Bette and Caroline acted like they even hadn’t acknowledged the other. Alice, being who she was, couldn’t take the tense silent anymore.
“Huh, Bette do you remember Caroline?”
“How could I? We were barely introduced before she decided she couldn’t stand to see her sister’s shameful lifestyle.”
“Nice to see you again, Bette. I haven’t see your lifestyle, but I surely have heard a lot about how you made my sister’s life so miserable.”
Deal with Bette will be more difficult than Alice thought. “Hey, guys, let’s stay cool. I thought a handshake was the usual compliment between sisters-in-law.” Oh, thanks God. Alice was relieved to see Tina’s doctor walking towards them. She was a short and skinny woman on her late 50′s maybe early 60′s, with short gray hair, blue eyes and a warm smile. She reminded her a grandma of publicity ads. But a few minutes of chat with her was enough to realize that behind that familiar façade was a competent professional. She approached the group greeting them with nods of her head and paying special attention to the woman she hasn’t been introduced yet but she had a suspect of whom could it be.
“Doctor, this is Bette Porter, Tina’s next of kin. Bette, this is Dr. Julie Davenport.”
Bette was hurt with Alice’s description of her. She could at least say ex-wife. How it comes I’m just a bureaucratic appendix now? Dr. Davenport shook Bette’s hand bringing her back of her reverie and started to lead the group to her office. There Bette and Caroline took seats side by side on the chairs cross Julie’s chair. Alice seated on a next couch, giving to the group some sense of privacy. She pondered for a moment let them alone, but thought against it after remembers the earlier confrontation between the women. Anyway of all of them she was the one who knew Tina’s condition better. Dr. Davenport sensed the tension between them and wondered if it was just for the problem they were facing or if there was something else. Usually she would make small talk for a few minutes before approach the hard stuff, trying to create a bond between them. But today she knew that it would be useless or even prejudicial, so she went direct to the business.

You did great great on the treatments and what can and can’t be done. So many people are waiting for transplants. They can only hope and pray. Most transpalant patients has a problem with transplants. That someone must die for them to live. you are doing great ,Carloline has really no say in this since Bette in next of Kin. and she said she would stop Bette from having anything to say about Tina or Angie.Red flagto Bette. Thanks
i hate healthy drama..BUT is part of life..i hope Tina be better soon and please dont let her die what i think is going to be a miracle..post soon and with some good news..thanks
The drama of it all… What about a partial liver transplant? Bette…don’t alienate the relatives too soon; you might need one.So, B&T do the CA domestic partnership registration? Hopefully, also, B’s on Angelica’s birth certificate as parent. If so, she’s got a good chance vs. Caroline. Then again, they were separated (which matters more for the dp than the parentage.)
Woooo lot of info there. The update was perfect. Bette was so confused about everything and at the same time angry. Tina is still her wife in her heart and her soul even now. I really hope there will be an transplants on time. They need more time together. Keep up the good work.
Great job.THANKS..
just get the liver from carline LOL…is tina conscious? i hope B&T can reconcile and also find donor soon
Great chapter very informative and all spot on…so Caroline is going to be trouble??? ok her liver might do??? if shes going to be nasty to Bette that is!keep it comin its great
You did an excellent job of the medical diagnosis and clinical protocol. I can’t wait to see how she’ll react to seeing Tina. I can just see it. She’ll collapse and blame herself. DAMS….this is some good shit. Please post soon. :P
Whoa PBC nasty disease, my mum had it thank-fully for us she got a transplant 9 years ago and is doing good, but sad for the 25 year old woman who lost her life in a car crash, for my mum to live. It was an emotional chapter for me brought memory back of when she was in for her transplant.Please make Tina survive and her and Bette get back toghether.PLease post soon.
WoW! this is really sad I’m just catch up to read of your story and it’s really interesting Whoa! so Tina she is really sick I hope that is OK! Please fixed it LOL! I’ll know it’s only FF story BUT still LOL! Hey I love it I trust you to make Tina get better PLEASE Thanks!!
this is sad. make it better? thanks for the update
I’ll bet Caroline is a perfect match for a transplant. Partial or total, depending upon how hard she acts toward Bette. If she starts talking custody of Angelica, kill her a** off I say! This is fanfic…this is fanfic…
And why did Bette run off and leave her baby (Angelica) for seven months? Unforgivable! After Tina gets well, she should cut Bette off for a couple months for revenge. Ha! “I got my transplant. I’m not yellow anymore! How you like me now? Sleep on the couch, bit..I mean, Bette!”
This is sad and very bad and please don’t let Tina die. Post soon please, thanks!
hope Tina will come out of coma soon.
You sure know how to create some drama elword…very nice and what is Bette going to do when she sees Tina….please continue
