The Coronation, Becca Marien [feel good books to read txt] 📗

there’s bad news." He Began, "The good news is that there's no bleeding. The bad news is that the brain its self is swelling a bit."
"What does that mean?" Mom asked taking Dad's hand.
"I know you don't want to hear this Solan, but we’ll have to readmit her for just the night hopefully. We'll double her dose of the medicine to get the brain to un-swell and then we'll take it from there."

I sighed. More hospital time.
"I'll go grab you a room." Dr. Morris said, and left the room.
"I'll go home and get some stuff." Mom said, "Pierce, you might want to come with me. I'll drop you off at home."

"Okay," He said sadly.

            He gave me a hug and left with Mom. I followed Dad and Dr. Morris to a room. I changed into a gown, and got into the hospital bed. They took my Vitals, and hooked up an IV, giving my meds through it. Mom came back Solo, with a black duffle bag.

            After I was checked in, I told them I was fine and that they could go down to the cafeteria to eat. I looked out my window, rain pounding on it.

"Sorry it took so long." Pierce said coming into the room.
            I looked over at him. He had a blow up mattress and a pillow under one arm, a back pack on his back, and a bag from McDonalds in the other.

"Here." He handed me the bag.
"What are you doing?" I asked, a smile coming into place.
"Setting up camp." He said, rolling out the bed.

            There was a blanket on the bed. I ate my fries as he pulled out an air pump from his back pack. He hooked the pump to the bed, and blew up the mattress. He tested it out with a hand and set his pillow down. He wrapped up the pump and put it into his back pack.

"Where are your parents?"
"Food."
"Oh." He nodded.

            He walked over to my bed and used the remote on the bed to turn on the T.v.. He found a channel and turned up the volume.

"That's not too loud is it?"
            I shook my head as I stuffed some fries into my mouth. He lay down on his bed and we watched T.v. until my parents came back. Dad laughed when he saw Pierce's set up, Mom smiled and shook her head.

"As long as it's alright with your parents."

"It is. Dad grabbed this out of the basement for me." He said, patting the mattress.

"I brought this for you." A nurse rolled in a chair, which turned into a bed.

"Thanks." Dad took it from her.
"You know how to use it?"
"Yep."
"Okay." She checked my IV bag. "Is there anything that you need sweet heart?"
"I have to pee."
"Okay. When you have to pee you can unplug the IV machine and take it with you."
"Okay."
She unplugged the Machine and helped me up.
"You good?"
"Yep."
"Alright. Just roll it with you, and then plug it back in when you get back in bed."

"Thanks."
"Sure. Can I get you guys anything?" She asked my parents and Pierce, "Blanket, Pillows?"
"Both would be lovely." Mom said.

            I peed and then went back to bed. Mom plugged my machine back in just as the nurse came back in with the blankets and pillows. She set them on the bench seat.

"And just push the call button if you end up needing towels or anything like that."

"Thanks Hon," Mom smiled at her, grabbing a blanket.

            She made up the chair bed, and Dad stretched out on it. She arranged some pillows on the bench bed, and settled in with her blanket and romance novel. I looked at Dad, with his arms behind his head, as he watched T.v. Both of them seemed perfectly at ease. As if the hospital was a second home. And Peirce, well he just adapts to his surroundings really well.

            I looked over at him on his mattress. He had a large baggy full of popcorn, and he was tossing pieces into the air, and eating them. I settled into my bed, and watched T.v. Forget the plans for the beach. If I kept these hospital visits up, who knows how long I'd be living with my parents.
