Remember When

Chapter 2

Because the EMT’s needed the space to work on Bette the told Tina and the gang where they were taking Bette and ask them to follow, and as much as Tina wanted to ride with Bette, Kit convinced her to take a ride with her in Bette’s car because Angus took her car to go to the police station to take care of things at that end regarding Jodie’s brother. They all got into their cars and drove behind the ambulance all the way to the hospital. As soon as they arrived Kit parked right besides the ambulance so Tina could get out and they were met with the EMT’s starting CPR on Bette. Tina started to run to her when Kit stopped her as the paramedics wheeled Bette inside the ER. Kit let go of Tina and she ran inside and was met with the sight of nurses and doctors working around Bette, and all a sudden she heard:

     Doctor- Ok, everyone clear…Charge to 300…Clear…

     Nurse- Still no pulse

     Doctor- Charge to 325…Clear…

     Nurse- Still the same doctor

     Doctor- Come on Ms. Porter, charge to 350…Clear…

Tina let out the breath she didn’t even knew she was holding when she heard the beeping sound of the heart monitor and the doctor saying:

     Doctor- Ok, we’ve got a pulse. She’s back let’s hurry…

Tina knew the doctor kept talking to the staff but she tuned him out after hearing that Bette was, at least for the time being, still alive.

After parking their cars Kit, Alice, Shane and the rest of the gang came to where Tina was sitting after the doctors informed her that they were taking Bette into surgery. Tina told them about the surgery and that the only thing that was left to do right now was wait. They all sat down in the waiting area of the OR and the same thought seemed to be crossing every girls mind: How strange life is. One minute you are happy having a good time with your friends, your family and the next you’re in the hospital praying to God and whoever else wants to listen to save a friend’s, sister and lover’s life and to give everyone the opportunity to not take life for granted.
