In the Family Page #4

I didn't get much of it.

Hey, Chip, Daddy's going to make a call, okay?

Hey Eileen, it's Joey. Its about 9:30 now.

Im here at the hospital with Dave.

I was hoping you knew what happened exactly.

I guess the nurse, Nurse Edwards is supposed

to come talk to us, but I haven't seen her yet.

Hey, Dave, Sally knows right?

Yeah, Im going to go pick her up at noon.

Okay.

Yeah, so call me back when you get this

and Ill let you know what's going on.

Or you can let me know what's going on. Bye.

Did you call your work?

Oh, no no. I should.

Mr. Robey, we called this

number that your wife gave us...

Hi, are you Nurse Edwards?

You are. Great. Is he okay?

Is he doing okay now?

Wait, are you also here for Mr. Hines?

Yes, Im Joey Williams. I live with him.

This is our kid Chip, Chip Hines.

Is he still in surgery?

Is he with the doctor in surgery?

No no no. He hasn't gone into surgery yet.

Mr. Robey, your wife gave us this doctor's information, but when we

contacted his office, they didn't have any records for Mr. Hines.

No, that's not his doctor.

Do you have any idea...

That hasn't been his doctor for years.

This is his doctor now.

Are you sure?

Yeah. Definitely.

Okay. Okay, good.

Is there something else you need to know?

About his medical history? He's allergic to penicillin

and he needs... do you want to write that down?

Chip, your Dad'll be right back.

Hi...

Hey baby.

So they finished the surgery about an hour ago.

They got started really late.

I was here for hours before they started.

And it was harder than they thought.

The doctor explained a little bit more what happened.

Its awful, Eileen.

It looks like, it looks like

Cody got pretty roughed up.

But they did a lot, so he's resting now.

They said that they would...

they'd learn a lot from

how he does tonight. Okay?

Okay.

Ill be right back.

Okay.

Hey Joey.

Oh, Eileen. Hey.

I brought your stuff.

Oh good. Thanks for picking it up.

Are you sure you don't want

to go home and get some rest?

No, tonight's important, they said.

So Im gonna stick around.

Do you want Chip come home stay with us?

No, that's fine. He, he wants to stay.

Mr. Robey, Mrs. Hines. If you'd like,

you can see Mr. Hines now.

He's not conscious, but you can

sit with him for a few minutes if you like.

Yes. I'd like that, yes.

Good. This way, Mrs. Hines.

Oh, Im sorry, Mr. Williams, only family members

allowed to visit at this time.

Oh. So you mean I can't see him?

I mean, we are family, we...

Im sorry, Mr. Williams.

No, Joey, is...

No, it's okay. Chip, go with Grandma Sally, okay?

I don't want to go.
