It has now been five hours since Mr. Nash left the house to take Ellie to the ER and Ellie and he has now been waiting in the ER wait area for the last four and half hours. Mr. Nash looks over at his daughter and sees that she is dry heaving into the trash can that next to her seat. He stands up and walks over to the admittance desk. The nurse at the desk looks up at Mr. Nash, then goes back to filing paperwork. Mr. Nash leans over the counter and takes the paperwork out of her hands.

Mr. Nash: My daughter and I have been waiting in the wait area four and half hours now.
Nurse Santo: Has your number been called yet?
Mr. Nash: NO
Nurse Santo: Then you we have to go back to your set and wait your turn. It’s a very busy night and the ER has no bed free at the moment.
Mr. Nash: Listen here Nurse Santos my daughter has not been able to keep anything down since last night at 7:30p.m. and she has a fever of 40.5 C (104.9 F). She also has diarrhea, is dizzy and is really weak. Now I want a doctor to take a look at her now!
Nurse Santo: Go have a seat with your daughter, I will go sees what I can do.
Mr. Nash: Thanks

Mr. Nash walks back over to his daughter and sets back down. Ellie lays her head down on her dad left shoulder and starts to cry. He wraps his left arm around Ellie shoulder and wipes the tear off her face with his right head. Ellie looks up at her dad, at the sometime her eyes roll backwards and she passes out. Mr. Nash picks up his daughter and carries her through the doors that divide the ER from the wait area. A doctor and a nurse come run over to him, they lead him over to curtain area one and he lays Ellie onto the hospital bed. The doctor listens to Ellie lungs and as the nurse takes her temperature. Just then Nurse Santo comes run up to them.

Dr. Peanut: Nurse Santos drew some of Ellie’s blood and have a red and white blood cell count run. Also, check her iron count. Nurse Smoothie I want you to stay an Iv to rehyrate Ellie and to reduce her fever it is too high. Nurse Santo once you have finish draw Ellie’s blood I need you to give Ellie a shoot to help calm her stomach down.

The nurses get to work and the doctor continues to check Ellie over. Mr. Nash set in a chair next to his daughter bed and holds her right hand.
