Subject: "No..just..thinking." She stated softly, pursing her lips before the doctor came in. Softly, the young man cleared his throat. "First of all, I would like to say that your main focus right now should be on the fact that you are pregnant." He stated, trying to make things a little easier on this couple. "With all the scar tissues and internal damage in your fallopian tubes, it's a miracle in itself that you concieved." He tipped his head to the side, looking down at his clipboard. "This baby obviously is very strong and has a good chance of making it through this." He paused, letting out a low breath. "That being said, I can tell you that currently the baby is healthy and seems to be doing well, your vitals are good and so are its...the chances that you are going to be able to carry to term though is very, very slim."
In reply to: Niko 's message, "(He was humming a song that had been on the radio on the way to the hospital even when they had been settled into a consultation room. The nurse had come in and taken Skye's weight, blood preasure, temp and other readings and then left the two of them to wait for the doctor. He had started to get bored and that damn song was stuck in his head, so after a few seconds silence.. he started humming. He looked the picture of calm and cool, in faded jeans and a black wool sweater, his hair a few weeks past due for a trim and a few days worth of growth shadowing his face. He tapped his left hand on his knee as he hummed, getting into the song, his eyes wandering the room and the many instruments and diagrams.)" on Tue, Dec 20 2005, 9:03pm PST

  • (From the moment the doctor said the word 'damage' until the end of the lecture, Niko had been holding his breath, brow furrowing in question. He looked from the Doctor to Skye and back, and when the doctor finished speaking his breath rushed out of him.) What kind of damage? (He asked, concern and worry running through his eyes, he went to Skye's side and took her hand, looking down at her and then at the doctor. She had to be feeling like hell, and he was just so damned confused.. she had carried Sam fine.. why would she have trouble carrying this baby. They couldn't lose another baby.) So, we'll just have to have a scheduled cesarean, right? (He said finally, the last word carrying a tone that was almost daring the doctor to tell him otherwise.)
