Once they reached the emergency room entrance Jordan was rushed in and immediately heart monitors were attached and she was given oxygen. Andy had been informed that he would have to stay out till she had been stabilized. He watched through the glass windows as the nurses and doctors did their job. Suddenly he remembered the bottle of pills he had shoved back in Jordan's bag and with two swift strides he had retrieved the bag off the floor where he had dropped it. Andy shoved his hand in to find the bottle of pills and rushed into the room where Jordan lay unconscious and handed the bottle to a nurse. She read the label and quickly informed the doctor that Jordan was a diabetic. Jordan was then given two injections, her IV was changed and after a few minutes her heart rate came down and she began to stabilize. She regained consciousness with the help of the nurses smelling salt and was now staring about her wide eyed. They moved her to a private room where Andy sat next to her bed for the next twelve hours and every now and then she would open her eyes briefly but would always close them before he could speak. It was a long day for both of them. Jordan was given another injection of insulin that night and the medicine in her IV made her extremely sleepy so she slept through the night without any more complications.

The doctor came in at seven o'clock that morning to check on Jordan. Andy was old friends with him; they had gone to college together. After exchanging pleasantries Andrew started his move by asking Vince to let Jordan go home with him and a bedside nurse. At first he refused but then Vince finally agreed that she would recover more quickly in a quieter environment so he consented. A once over check was done on Jordan. The doctor was convinced that all she needed was rest and her normal two pills a day. Thirty minutes later a nurse returned with all the necessary paperwork for Andy to sign. He filled in his signatures where appropriate and handed them back. Another nurse came in and introduced herself as Nurse Bennett; she was going to be Jordan's bedside nurse. Nurse Bennett was a black lady who was slightly overweight and about five foot seven. Her thick black hair was pulled back at the nape of the neck in an over sized bun. She had wide hazel eyes and a laughing smile that showed all her teeth. A pair of reading glasses sat perched on the end of her pudgy nose. Andrew liked her immediately and knew that Jordan was sure to feel comforted by her kind eyes and warm smile. After another half-hour Jordan was released under the care of Nurse Bennett and Andrew Nichols.
