Patrick had just come back from checking on a patient of his. He walked up to the nurse's desk when he heard the elevator. He turned around to see the doors open.
After Julian got Lucas' call about Ava, he went to Kelly's and ordered Ava a cheeseburger deluxe which was her favorite. He went to the hospital and found her room. "I hear that congratulations are in order." He smiled at her.
"Luke is right, Mom. Vic would not want you to get yourself sick over this. She definitely would not want your ms to flare up. How about I go and get you something to eat?" Nick asked as he looked at Nikki.
Luke went over to the sofa with Nikki and sat down next to her. "Just take a deep breath, okay?" He put his hand on her back and rubbed it up and down. "Maybe, you should eat something. Victoria wouldn't want you to get yourself sick."
Lucas chuckled softly when he heard Ava. "I will get you something to eat. I will see if I could find out how Victoria is doing as well as call Julian for you." He smiled at her. "If there is anything else that you need. Just let me know."
Dylan saw Courtney come in and smiled. "Thank you for coming." He hugged her. "Victoria is in surgery. Patrick and Griffin are doing it. She's got swelling in the brain." He sighed.
Courtney came to the hospital, to be with Dylan. As she walked over, she heard Nikki, and sighed. "Oh no. Is Victoria, all right." She went over to Dylan. I wanted to come and be here for you, Dylan. Hi Jason, Nick." She looked at them.
"Oh, Luke. This is the second time, this is happening to, Victoria." She sighed. "I need to sit down." She went over to the sofa, and sat down, and sighed. "I don't know, how much more of this, I can take." She breathed in deeply.
Ava smiled up at him. "Well, I am rather starving. Didn't get a chance to eat this morning, my baby had other ideas." She giggled. "I would like to know, how Victoria is doing. And, may be you can call Julian for me. I'd like him, to keep me company, while Jason is with his, mom." She smiled at him.
Luke hugged Nikki back a little bit tighter. "It's going to be okay. Victoria is just like you. Including how strong she is." He looked at Jason, Dylan and Nick. "I'm glad that you have all been here for Nikki."
"Oh, Luke." She went over to him, and hugged him tightly. "They just took Victoria upstairs. Patrick is operating with Griffin's help. And, as you can see, my wonderful boys are here, helping me." She sighed.
Lucas went into Ava's room. "Hey Ava. I wanted to let you know that you are fine. Julia is in the nursery getting her shots. Once that's done, I will bring her in for you. You and Julia can both go home tomorrow. Is there anything that you need?"
Luke finally made it to the hospital. He got off the elevator and walked down the hallway where he saw Nikki with the boys. He walked over to them. "I am so sorry for being late. I'm here now, Nikki."
Dylan went over by Nikki and Jason after Victoria was wheeled into the elevator. He put his hand on her shoulder. "She's in good hands with Patrick and Griffin. Whatever you need, we're all here, Mom."
