    Tina was missing so much.   

     

    Bette was entirely focused on her family that she didn’t hear anyone enter the room.

     

    “Oh… Bette?  Uh…I didn’t realize…I’m sorry.”  It was nine o’clock sharp and Helena’s time to visit Tina.  She had walked in expecting to find Tina alone.

     

    Bette looked up and Helena saw that she had caught Bette at an emotional moment.  She moved over to her, put her hand on her shoulder and whispered, “Bette, are you all right?”

     

    Bette nodded, stalling for time to put her voice together.  “Yeah.”

     

    Helena stood up straight.  “You were feeding the baby?  I’ll leave.  I can come ‘round tomorrow.  I thought I could pop in to see Tina.  Please, pardon me.”  Helena started to back away.

     

    Bette cleared her throat and shook her head.  The woman was being kind.  “No, Helena.  Stay.  We came in early today because we have a few things to do later this morning.  We’ll just be another minute.” 

     

    Nodding, Helena said, “I’m going to purchase a yogurt.  Is there anything I might get you?”

     

    “No, I’m fine.  You don’t have to leave.  Really.”

     

    “No worries,” Helena said as she quickly departed, nearly walking into Angus and his guitar as the man entered the room. 

     

    “Hi,” he mumbled.  “How’s it going?”

    1. Thankyou Portia….I absolutely love this story. That was so touching to read about Angelica and nursing…very touching made me cry. You obviously have invested a lot of time into this story and I for one am grateful….thankyou

    2. So well done. I love the detail about the nursing and the thinking of each character. Not at all superficial. Well-crafted and thoughtful. I’ll await your next chapter.

    3. Your story is one of the few amazing ones on this site. It’s one of those rare stories that elicit intense emotion from me. The sadness I feel when I read this is so palpable it hurts…but it’s a good thing. I would’ve much rather watched this than the season we got. Thank God you write so well, giving me a vivid picture of each scene. Please continue, I can’t wait until you update again. Your fan, Manda L.

    4. Please oh please do not let Tina get any worse. Watching someone in a coma is heartwrenching. You keep waiting for any sign of life inside of them. Sometimes you think that you see something and then you are not sure because you want it to happen so badly. Bette is fighting to hold everything together. She is slowly loosing her own sanity. This is so sad.

    5. You are so methodically filling all the holes in their stories. Your details are rich and full of color. You give us what we need for the picture to be complete. And you are making the Tina-coma sl so real! And we have a process of Dana and Alice coming apart and Lara coming back into the picture. And we see that Helena is a creature of many sides, not just a one-dimensional character, either haughty or humble. Do you think the series producers were afraid that if they delved into the stories with this much detail that they might not be far enough along through Season 3? I was intrigued about the nursing technique and wasn’t aware that it could be done. Thanks for enlightening and entertaining me with your compelling work!

    6. tina has to wake up… i have a bad feeling as to why her mom and sister are coming… i hope its not to take angie back with them… love this story… please continue… soon

    7. Great chapter, thank you. Love your story. You are doing a wonderful job with it showing the various things that happens wiht a patient that is comatose and what one has to do to stimulate them.Thanks for the post.
