Part 18

Ryan McQuaid: pov it's a heart condition, she was shot a few years ago. Twice in the chest, but sometime last year she started developing weird symptoms and a doctor diagnosed her with Myocarditis, she may need another surgery for a valve repair at some point.

Dr Scott: pov wow that must be hard for her I can definitely get her an appointment, what day works best for her.

Ryan McQuaid: pov actually she is in the hospital at the moment. I was on a work trip and someone who hasn’t been caught yet tasered her in the parking lot of McQuaid security. 2 of my employees had to use the paddles on her 3 times.

Dr Scott: pov that's awful I hope she is okay.

Ryan McQuaid: pov she's doing better it's been a week she has a moderate concussion and they are keeping a close eye on her heart, she is having some issues due to a muscle injury so her speech is a little slurred and she is still on oxygen temporarily. They removed the stitches from the back of her head this morning.

Dr Scott: pov you can call when she gets out of the hospital to make an appointment. I can't wait to meet her, she sounds like a strong woman.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I will have her Dr send over all of her medical records.

Dr Scott: pov that would be great. See you soon.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I text Auggie in the car before I leave the dentist office that I'm making a quick stop before heading back to the hospital. Arthur, Joan and Calder all called me while I was in the dentist office. It must be important. I pick up the phone and call Joan back first, hey what's up did you get any closer to finding the guy.

Joan Campbell: pov Maybe, a body has been found in an abandoned warehouse shot in the head. Might be related to what happened to Annie, our guys are making sure the body is identified.

Ryan McQuaid: pov do I need to get back to the hospital I was going to run an errand before I went back but if the guy that tasered Annie is dead then someone killed him, but why.

Joan Campbell: pov no idea.

Ryan McQuaid: pov also why would someone use a taser on Annie if they wanted her dead, why not use a gun or something else, plus only a few people know about her heart condition so that means he probably didn't know about it and why pick the parking lot of McQuaid security.

Joan Campbell: pov Maybe he used the taser because he wanted to kidnap her but it went south with her having a heart condition and he freaked out probably called his boss or someone else and that is how he ended up as a dead body. This is just a theory still waiting for an ID on the body.

Auggie Anderson: pov it's hard with me not being able to see, I can hear the sound of Annie's monitors in the room the nurse explained to me where everything is. I can hear the door opening in Annie's room.

Nurse Judy: pov Hi Auggie I'm here to check Annie's vitals and see if she wants to eat anything for lunch. How's the headache Annie?

Annie walker: pov etter oesn't urt s uch.

Auggie Anderson: pov how are vitals doing.

Nurse Judy: pov better, they are improving.

Auggie Anderson: pov do you know when she can lose the oxygen.

Nurse Judy: pov that depends on how she is doing oxygen wise and when the DR says it can be removed. Annie what type of food do you want, because you can have more of that soup.

Annie walker: pov ank ou he oup ounds mazing.

Auggie Anderson: pov It's still hard to understand her when she talks. The nurse is back with her soup. Do you need help eating the soup or can you do it by yourself? I know I might not be much help but I thought I would ask anyway.

Annie walker: pov he can't see so I can't write down what i’m saying and it's hard to understand me when I talk. I text him how nice of you, I'm good actually getting better at feeding myself. The nurse asks Auggie if he wants something to eat because she can get him something, it's no problem.

Auggie Anderson: pov Sure that would be nice.

Nurse Judy: pov is a sandwich okay.

Auggie Anderson: pov yeah that's fine.

Annie walker: pov I ave o ee

Auggie Anderson: pov I can't understand what she is saying.

Nurse Judy: pov i think she has to pee, here Annie let me help you up, she is not stable on her feet so someone has to help her.

Auggie Anderson: pov can I help walk her to the bathroom.

Nurse Judy: pov sure, I will direct you where to go.

Annie walker: pov nurse Judy helps me up while Auggie is holding onto me so I don't fall over she is telling him which direction to go towards the bathroom.

Nurse Judy: pov once she is in the bathroom I tell Auggie to sit down. I will shout if she needs help getting back to the bed. I want him to feel included. I know it's hard for him not being able to see.

Auggie Anderson: pov I get up and help the nurse get Annie back to bed.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I got back to the hospital as fast I could. In Annie's room her and Auggie are both eating. Hey how's it going, have her vitals been good while I was gone.

Auggie Anderson: pov yes they were fine. Why don't you go to the cafeteria while I'm still here in Annie's room sitting with her.

Ryan McQuaid: pov thanks a lot. While walking down the halls to the cafeteria my phone starts ringing. It's my brother. He must be on his lunch break. Hey Jeff what's up. To be continued. ………..

Part 16

Leighanne: pov what do you mean leave her alone, can't she come with you. I thought she worked at McQuaid security with you.

Ryan McQuaid: pov she does and at the moment she is in the hospital.

Leighanne: pov oh my is everything okay, what happened if you don't mind me asking.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I don't have all the info but some guy tasered her in the parking lot of McQuaid security, it was bad I was on a business trip and flew home immediately. Arthur, one of my employees and a father figure to Annie found her on the ground as he was pulling into the parking lot. He started cpr on her and had to use the paddles 3 times to get her back. She has prior cardiac history and Myocarditis so they are keeping a close eye on her. She also has a moderate concussion which is doing better.

Leighanne: pov that sounds awful, by the way what is Myocarditis?

Ryan McQuaid: pov it's a heart condition.

Leighanne: pov the way you said it made it seem like she had a heart condition and something else wrong.

Ryan McQuaid: pov that's because she had cardiac issues before the Myocarditis, a few years ago before i met her, annie and her boyfriend at the time were in the kitchen making dinner and talking about taking a trip when her boss snuck into the house and shot the both of them, her then boyfriend died in the kitchen and she was in critical condition with 2 bullet wounds in her chest, she had emergency heart surgery to repair the damage and was in a coma for a bit afterwards her boss then dressed as a Dr snuck into Annie's room and tried to suffocate her thankfully someone noticed and while everyone was focused on helping Annie she escaped. Her boss was later killed while falling to surrender.

Leighanne: pov I can't believe that happened to her that is so insane. I hope she feels better soon.

Ryan McQuaid: pov thanks, I just don't know when she is getting out and if she will be cleared to fly. Then we have physical therapy, speech therapy because her words are a little slurred from the tasering then all these follow up appointments and test they want to run on her, because they are concerned about her valve damage from her Myocarditis

Leighanne: pov she has valve damage, that doesn't sound like fun.

Ryan McQuaid: pov it isn't.

Leighanne: pov I have to go one of the kids is calling for me, talk to you later.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I head back into the room and decide to check my emails while I wait for Joan, nurse Bonnie is carefully checking Annie's vitals so she doesn't wake her up. The door opens to reveal Joan with baby Mack who she picked up from the sitter.

Joan Campbell: pov hey Ryan how's Annie doing.

Ryan McQuaid: pov okay, how did you get Mack here babies aren't allowed on this

ward.

Joan Campbell: pov I have my ways plus I mentioned how it would help her feel better.

Ryan McQuaid: pov it's been a few minutes since Joan arrived and it looks like Annie is waking back up from her nap.

Annie: pov an I ave o ee.

Ryan McQuaid: pov you know it's hard to understand you and you should write down what you want to say. she writes i have to pee, okay let me help you up.

Joan Campbell: pov is everything okay.

Ryan McQuaid: pov yes Annie just has to pee, let me hit the button so nurse Bonnie can help us.

Joan Campbell: pov once Annie is back in bed I place Mack next to her which makes her so happy. I just hope he doesn't accidentally pull one of her cords. I remind her to watch his hands. We chat for a bit about the case and how we are getting nowhere so far. I’ve only had to tell Mack once not to play with the cords, he is definitely getting sleepy. Annie's eyes are clearly still moving weird, Ryan says it's actually getting better her eyes are moving less which the Dr said is a good thing and so far the eeg hasn't picked up any seizure activity which is a good thing. Look at that they are both asleep snuggling. I think I should go. I carefully pick Mack up from the bed and carry him out to the car so we can go home.

Ryan McQuaid: pov since Annie is already asleep i decided to get in my pajamas and get comfortable. My brother Jeff left me a text asking if everything is okay. I decide to head into the hallway and call him letting him know everything is okay. He tells me how his day was hanging out with the guy from his meeting. Glad you had a great time. Bye, I will call you tomorrow. I wake to sunlight pouring into the room, it looks like Annie slept through the night. Nurse Judy is filling me in on her vitals which look good. I quickly shower while she is still sleeping. All 3 Dr's should be in the room soon to go over some things.

Nurse Judy: pov it looks like Annie is waking up. She is trying to rub the sleep from her eyes. Do you have to go to the bathroom? It sounds like she says yes.

Annie: pov Ryan helps me out of bed while Nurse Judy holds my wires out of the way, the walk to the bathroom is short thankfully my legs cooperate. While I'm peeing, the nurse gets my toiletries so I can brush my teeth. Ryan is making sure I don't fall over while I put tooth paste on my tooth brush.

Nurse Judy: pov me and Ryan help Annie back to bed.

Dr Rosen: pov good to see you awake already, I need to take a look at your eyes and then look at the read out on the eeg monitor if everything looks good It can be removed. To be continued. …………

Part 15

Annie: pov oo uch ll f is.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I know it's too much for you but with your medical history it's better to play it safe. How about if the Dr's say it's okay I cuddle with you in bed. Annie nods her head yes. 

Annie: pov  izzy, mmy eels nny.

Dr Rosen: pov what is she saying.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I think the eye thing is making her dizzy and nauseous. 

Dr Rosen: pov Nurse Judy can you push some nausea meds. we are all set, I will stop by later to check on her. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov can I cuddle with Annie is that okay, just sitting in bed holding her.

Dr Rosen: pov that should be fine as long as the monitors don't get disconnected. 

Dr carpenter: pov her vitals seem to be doing better,

Dr Rosen: pov I want her to drink a lot of water to flush out that other medication in case it's what caused this. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov is there something you can give her to help with the weird eye thing. 

Dr Rosen: pov nothing came up on the scan so we actually don't know what is causing it.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I know what that means, there is nothing you can do for it at the moment.

Dr Rosen: pov yep she just has to wait it out and if it gets worse or if she gets any weird symptoms let us know. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov nurses Judy is making sure Annie is okay and her wires don't get tangled while I get in bed. I lower the railing on the right side of the bed and carefully climb in, her monitors are on the left side. 

Nurse Judy: pov I make sure he doesn't get tangled in Annie's wires. He is rubbing her back while her head is resting on his chest.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I can tell Annie is crying. Hey everything is okay, I know it's uncomfortable but try to take a nap.

Annie: pov okay. 

Nurse Judy: pov I will be back in a bit to check on her. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov hey nurse Judy can you shut the lights out maybe she will fall asleep and feel better.

Auggie Anderson: pov on the way to the hospital I decide to stop for some food that way Ryan won't have to leave Annie's side. Natasha let's get him something easy to eat like a sandwich, I text him asking him what type of sandwich he wants. 

Natasha: pov Auggie why don't you sit at one of the tables that way when I order you can help me carry the food out to the car, it will make it easier because carrying the sodas and the bag with the sandwiches is going to be hard. After ordering what me and Auggie want, I order what Ryan wants, the smoked brisket. In the parking lot of the hospital I hand Auggie the bag with the sandwiches while I carry the thing with the drinks. The walk to Annie's room is short, Ryan texted me letting me know Annie was sleeping and the light was off. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov i’m so thankful that Auggie is bringing me some food. Nurse Judy is checking on Annie's vitals which wakes her up by accident.

Nurse Judy: pov sorry for waking you up. Did you sleep okay? 

Annie: pov i guess. I can still feel my eyes twitching but not as bad.

Nurse Judy: pov i need to let Dr Rosen know you're up can i turn on the lights so he can check your eyes. Sounds like she said sure. 

Dr Rosen: pov good to see you up Annie, i’m going to look in your eyes this won't hurt. Her eyes are definitely still twitching but not as bad. I check the read out for the eeg machine so far I don't see any seizure activity but will continue to monitor till morning, how's the headache you had earlier. 

Annie: pov gone now. 

Dr Rosen: pov sounds like she said gone now, that's good to hear.

Nurse Judy: pov Annie it's dinner time what would you like to eat you can have another smoothie, oatmeal or the heart healthy soup. 

Annie: pov oup 

Ryan McQuaid: pov she wants soup. Hey Auggie how are you, him and Natasha are walking into Annie's room with our food 

Auggie: pov I'm good, me and Natasha are having a great time traveling the world. With Annie being in the hospital I'm trying  to make the most of  my time with her while I'm here in town.  

Ryan McQuaid: pov nurse Judy is back with Annie's soup. I raise the bed and get her settled comfortably so she can eat. I can tell Annie is struggling to get the spoon to her mouth. 

Auggie: pov Annie definitely sounds very frustrated. 

Annie: pov with my eyes moving weirdly it's hard getting the spoon from the bowl into my mouth, on the first try I spill the soup.

Ryan McQuaid: pov here let me help you Annie. I pick up the spoon and feed her the soup while I update Auggie on Annie. He talks about all the cool places they have been to while traveling. I can tell Annie is done because she is pushing my hand away saying what sounds like no more full. 

Auggie: pov hey Ryan what is Annie saying. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov no more she is full. I eat my sandwich while they talk. Auggie mentions they should be leaving, Annie needs her sleep. My phone is ringing. I quickly walk into the hall and answer it before it wakes Annie who is asleep. It's Joan asking if she can stop by on the way home from work, sure. 

Joan Campbell: pov do you need me to bring anything like food. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov no i’m good Auggie brought me food a few minutes ago. My phone is ringing again. It's my sister Leighanne calling, I wonder why she is calling. Hey what's up, is everything okay with the kids.

Leighanne: pov yeah they just won't stop bugging me asking if you're coming to the gender reveal, it's okay if you can't because of work. You can always come down another time. But I would definitely like to meet your fiance at some point.

Ryan McQuaid: pov actually I talked with my fiance annie about your gender reveal and she said I should go but I don't want to leave her alone. To be continued. ……..

Part 14

Ryan McQuaid: pov we are now back in Annie's room, Dr carpenter okayed the medication. Dr Simone is going over the possible side effects with us. Annie looks tired, today definitely wore her out, her eyes are barely open. If you are tired you can go to sleep. Once she is asleep I head to the bathroom to pee. I decide to quickly jump in the shower while she sleeps. I walk over to my bag and grab my toiletries and a change of clothes. I shower as quickly as I can in case Annie wakes up. I turn off the water and step out of the shower grabbing a towel to dry off with before getting in my clothes. Sitting next to her bed in a hard chair I hold her hand while I reply back to some texts and emails. I update Joan, Calder, Auggie and Arthur about Annie's condition. I notice Annie is starting to move in the bed she must be waking up. Hey sleepy head, did you sleep well? 

Annie: pov  i slur something woke me up, something wrong.

Ryan McQuaid: pov it sounds like she said something woke her up I wonder what it was could it have been the shower, did she just say something wrong. That is when I notice her eyes are moving weirdly from side to side almost like they are twitching. I quickly get up and hit the button for the nurse. Annie is definitely starting to freak out, hey it's okay the nurse is almost here. 

Nurse Judy: pov what can I help you with. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov something is wrong Annie's eyes are moving weirdly from side to side almost like they are twitching. Nurse Judy hits the button so another nurse can come in. 

Nurse Judy: pov can you get her Dr's. Dr Carpenter, Dr Rosen and Dr Simone 

Dr carpenter: pov what seems to be the problem.

Nurse Judy: pov Annie's eyes are moving weirdly from side to side almost like they are twitching and she is freaking out which is making her heart rate elevated.

Dr Rosen: pov okay, lets take her for emergency scans to make sure nothing serious is going on. Some people get this with a bad concussion but it's been a few days and hers is getting better. It could also be seizure activity or something else. Has she eaten or drank anything recently? 

Ryan McQuaid: pov no, she just woke up from a nap. Dr. Rosen, will she need meds for this. 

Dr Rosen: pov that depends on the cause. 

Dr carpenter: pov let's give her some heart meds to lower her heart rate since it's up because she is freaking out. When was the last time she got meds besides the muscle ones.

Nurse Judy: pov before her nap and it was only the meds Dr Simone  prescribed.

Dr Rosen: pov I want to take her for emergency head scans. It could be a reaction to the meds or something else. 

Dr Simone: pov I went over the possible side effects with her. The eye thing wasn't one of them.

Dr Rosen: pov it's not your fault sometimes people have different side effects. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov everything is happening so quickly it is a rush of activity as they push her gurney towards the scan room, I'm allowed to walk with the gurney that Annie is on, I'm holding her hand. Hey everything is going to be okay no need to panic. We are now at the scan room, I kiss Annie on the forehead before sitting down to wait for the scan to be over. 

Annie: pov everything is happening so fast, i’m suddenly transferred on to the bed of the scan machine.

Nurse Judy: pov Annie you have to stay still for the test. Let's hope everything turns out okay for her.

Annie: pov It's so loudly and claustrophobic it feels like the walls are closing in on me. I’m not even claustrophobic so I don't know why this is bothering me. 

 

Nurse Judy: pov you have to calm down Annie you can't freak out. 

Dr Rosen: pov i’m sitting in the booth with the technician doing the scan so far I see nothing concerning only her concussion which is looking good. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov I decide to call Joan and let her know what is going on, I know she will tell Arthur and Calder. 

Joan Campbell: pov hey Ryan what's up, is everything okay with Annie.

Ryan McQuaid: pov no that's why I'm calling you. Annie is being taken for emergency scans as we speak Dr Simone gave Annie meds earlier and her eyes are doing some weird movements and they want to make sure it's not seizure activity or a side-effect of the medication. 

Joan Campbell: pov I will let Arthur and Calder know.

Ryan McQuaid: pov thanks, I call Auggie on the phone to let him know what is going on. He  said he will come right down, he should be at the hospital soon. I text my brother Jeff since he is out. The gurney with Annie on it is making its way out of the scan room, Dr Rosen says he and the technician didn't see anything concerning on the screen, but he will look at the scans closer to make sure he didn't miss anything but he would like to do an eeg on annie to 100 percent rule out seizure activity. 

Dr Rosen: pov once she is in the room it shouldn't take too long to hook her up to the eeg monitor, she will be monitored till morning to get an accurate reading. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov the walk back to Annie's room isn't too long, nurse Judy and Dr Rosen are hooking her up to the monitors. She looks upset, and over it all. Is everything okay Annie? 

Annie: pov o re itors. 

Ryan McQuaid: pov I think she is saying no more monitors, Annie sweetheart you need the monitors to make sure you are okay. To be continued.  ………

Part 13

Ryan McQuaid: pov dan is back to take us to Annie's room if you don't mind I would like to sit in the wheelchair with her on me she is almost asleep.

Dan the orderly: pov no problem. He manages to sit in the wheelchair with Annie without moving her too much.

Ryan McQuaid: pov we are now back in the room and Annie is asleep. Nurse Judy is checking her vitals which are looking a little better. The oxygen mask has to stay on till her numbers are higher then she can switch back to the nasal kind. Do you have any idea when she can shower? She has been bugging me about it.

Nurse Judy: pov that is up to her Dr. I can bring in some wipes if she wants to clean up a little. I’m going to notify Dr carpenter that her oxygen levels dropped so he can come check on her.

Ryan McQuaid: pov my Brother text me letting me know he is almost here, I reply with Annie is sleeping at the moment.

Dr Carpenter: pov I heard that Annie's oxygen numbers dropped while she was off the oxygen during the laryngoscopy, I would like to keep her on the oxygen mask for a little longer then switch her to the nasal kind. I talked with Dr Simone and she said this could be a possible mussel thing. Which makes sense.

Ryan McQuaid: pov okay.

Jeff McQuaid: pov I find a decent parking space and walk into the hospital I then head to the cardiology ward to visit Annie and Ryan. I brought him a chicken salad with a beef and vegetable burrito on the side with water. He updates me on Annie's condition and the possible test they want to run. Do they think her speech thing is going to be permanent or only temporary?

Ryan McQuaid: pov they aren't sure yet.

Jeff McQuaid: pov do they know when she will be released?

Ryan McQuaid: pov no idea yet. It will probably be a few days before she can be released. We chat for a little bit longer before he leaves.

Jeff McQuaid: pov Well I better get going another guy from the business meeting invited me to hang out.

Ryan McQuaid: pov have fun, wow this food is amazing. Nurse Judy enters the room with another woman who introduces herself as Jasmine. She is a nutritionalist, Dr. Carpenter and Dr Rosen already briefed her on Annie's condition and medical history. Annie is starting to wake up.

Annie: pov who is this other woman in the room with nurse Judy? Ryan explains to me it is the nutritionalist, jasmine.

Jasmine the nutritionalist: pov Some foods I will recommend until she can eat more solid/hard food is bananas, apple sauce, yogurt, oatmeal, fruit smoothie, soft fruit and vegetables, fish without the bones and more of that heart healthy soup once she can eat more hard foods other stuff can be added in. I will make a list of foods she can't eat that way when you go home you will know what they are, you can hang it on your fridge if you want.

Annie: pov my oxygen numbers look good so nurse Judy switches me to the nasal oxygen, with the dry erase board I write I have to pee. The numbness in my throat is almost completely gone.

Ryan McQuaid: pov okay let's get you up nurse Judy is helping me with Annie while the nutritionist jasmine offers to move her monitor for us which is a big help.

Nurse Judy: pov has the numbness worn off yet.

Annie pov: pov yes, only a little bit numb.

Nurse judy: pov okay, what would you like to eat?

Annie: pov the smoothie sounds nice.

Nurse Judy: pov by the time your smoothie arrives the numbness should be gone enough that you can eat the smoothie with no problem. I make sure to let the food people know which fruit she can't have because it will interact with her meds.

Annie: pov Nurse Judy is back in the room with my smoothie. Before she leaves she checks my vitals, I grab the smoothie and slurp it up with the straw, wow this tastes amazing.

Ryan McQuaid: pov how's your headache.

Annie: pov much better, I notice the door to my room opening, It's Dr Simone. She says the ultrasound room has an opening in a few minutes. Ryan grabs my empty cup and throws it out. Dan the orderly is here to help move me into the wheelchair.

Nurse Judy: pov this is Annie's first time going to the ultrasound room, her last echocardiogram was done in her room since she couldn't be moved yet.

Dan the orderly: pov I push the wheelchair close enough to the bed so that Mr McQuaid can lift her into the wheelchair. Once she is in the seat I push her out the room door while nurse Judy pushes the pole with the monitor. The walk to the ultrasound room isn't too long, it has a nice light yellow color on the wall. In the room I help Mr McQuaid get Annie situated on the exam table.

Dr Simone: pov I make sure Annie is laying in the proper position. I put a little cushion under her shoulders and make sure her neck is slightly extended properly, the ultrasound technician then applies the gel and moves the wand around. Since Annie can't hold her breath safely the technician will have to skip that part of the test. I have her sound out some vowels and say some words. I can see it on the monitor. It looks like the issue might be with her mussels that control speech. The cardiologist treating her did say she complained that it hurt to swallow in the beginning but it's getting better and that she had some swelling and inflammation in the back of her throat. It makes sense why she was having low oxygen numbers before when she was off the oxygen. What I would like to do Mr McQuaid since this problem is probably temporary is put her on medication that would help her muscles in that area work better. The taser probably stunned them, they don't look damaged which is a good thing. I'm surprised her other muscles weren't affected as badly. I know she is having trouble walking without help but that is because of everything that happened to her. I will have to clear it with Dr Carpenter first. To be continued. ……….

Part 10

Annie: pov I write yes, does this mean I get to take a shower.

Nurse judy: pov no that depends on what the Dr says.

Ryan McQuaid: pov Auggie and Natasha are staying at my house so is my brother Jeff. Me and nurse Juddy help Annie to the bathroom then back to bed.

Nurse judy: pov looks like you are all good, the nasal oxygen stays on though. While I'm here, do you want some dinner? Because I can get you some soup again.

Annie: pov i hold up the paper which i wrote sure that is fine.

Dr carpenter: pov hi I'm here to check on you. your vitals look good, if everything continues to look good you can possibly have a shower tomorrow. I need to listen to your lungs. With your vomiting I just want to make sure everything is good. Mr McQuaid mentions Annie is having trouble feeding herself, it probably won't last.

Jeff McQuaid: pov I text Ryan to let him know I can pick up food for us since my business meeting ended a few minutes ago.

Ryan McQuaid: pov that sounds nice I'm getting tired of hospital food. I tell Jeff to order me the popcorn chicken and fries with a salad on the side for me. Dr. Carpenter says her lungs sound good, he mentions that the ventilator can sometimes cause pneumonia so he just wanted to make sure her lungs are clear. He also mentions that a nutritionist will be visiting tomorrow to go over some food with us. To be continued. …………

Dr carpenter: pov I'm just trying to keep her as healthy as possible and I think this nutritionist can help with that. When she was admitted to the hospital I started her on anti-inflammatory medicine/corticosteroids to see if it helps with her Myocarditis that is why she is getting so many echocardiograms. Annie I have to ask how your throat is feeling.

Annie: pov I try to say it still hurts but my words are a little slurred. It's hard to swallow and hurts to talk.

Dr carpenter: pov i ask her to write down what she wants to say, that means the inflammation and swelling in your throat is still there, the vomiting must have aggravated it. While I'm here I will take a look to see how your throat is doing, I grab a pen light and shine it into her throat. Your throat still looks a little swollen, I want you to continue to eat soft or liquidy foods. Scratchy and very hard food is still a no. Annie, can you smile for me good girl, now lift up your arms great everything looks okay but to be on the safe side let's take her for some emergency scan to rule out anything serious going on with her speech.

Ryan McQuaid: pov annie is now back from the emergency scans we should have the results in a few minutes, Jeff should be here soon with the food. Annie's soup looks amazing, turns out it's a different kind, I mention to Annie my brother Jeff is stopping by to bring me food.

Jeff McQuaid: pov Annie's hospital room is on the cardiology ward, it looks like she is eating some type of soup. While we eat we talk about dog breeds, Ryan mentions to Annie that there are some shelters in their area they can visit. He also mentions that they could also get a service dog since it can be trained for if she has an episode.

Annie: pov i'm still using a pad and pencil to write what i want to say down, a service dog, are you kidding me, I'm not a disabled person and I don't have post traumatic stress disorder.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I'm not going to point out that she technically falls under the category of disabled, you know people with medical conditions get service dogs too, not just disabled people or people with ptsd, it's nothing to be ashamed of if it helps you live a better life. Then why not it's still a dog. The only difference is it has a job to do. It's your choice if you want to go the service dog route or not. I think It's a good idea, we could always ask the Dr and see what he recommends.

Annie: pov fine whatever do what you want.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I didn't mean to get you upset.

Nurse Judy: pov is everything okay in here it looks like Annie's numbers are up.

Ryan McQuaid: pov it's my fault we were talking about possibly getting a dog and I mentioned service dogs and Annie got upset.

Nurse Judy: pov I understand, I will just give her some meds and get out of your hair and please try to not get her upset. It's not good for her.

Jeff McQuaid: pov I chat a little about how my day went then decided to head out, Annie is starting to fall asleep anyway.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I update Calder, Joan and Arthur on how Annie is doing, they update me on the case and what info they have so far.

Auggie: pov I text Ryan to ask if it's okay to visit Annie, he mentions she is asleep but I can still visit. He's already eaten so I don't need to bring him food. Natasha offers to go with me to the hospital, which is nice.

Ryan McQuaid: pov I meet Auggie in the hallway outside of her room. Hi guys, Annie is actually sleeping as I mentioned over text message. We were talking about getting a dog and I made the mistake of mentioning a service dog and she got upset. She's okay the nurse gave her some meds since she is still recovering and shouldn't be getting upset.

Auggie: pov service dog, yeah that's a touchy subject.

Ryan McQuaid: pov did you ever think about getting a guide dog.

Auggie: pov sure I just felt like it wasn't for me.

Auggie: pov after spending some time sitting next to Annie's hospital bed me and Natasha head back to Ryan's for the night. To be continued. ………..
