@mnkee Do you want to go tat route with him? Perhaps not relations with people but let those that would have seen him at a gathering just post their impression of him? Could work that out instead and have it be his "relations" with them instead

@mnkee I could see that but it is completely up to you how well you want him known. If he had at least made one appearance then you can be sure that Mili's step mother tried to hook at least one of the girls up with him LMAO

Dr. Kumar just sat there, giving news like this was never easy and it never got any easier. It was the part of the job he hated the most, to have to look at someone and tell them they need to tell their loved one goodbye. He wanted to fix this, to make it alright. He would try but he knew the odds and he knew it was even worse to give false hope to people. As the chair hit his leg he grimaced but he kept his mouth shut, he knew Lincoln was just venting. Others had done far worse than Lincoln was right now. The chair crashing at down the hall got several people's attention and Dr. Kumar just lifted his hand and motioned for them to go away. He had this.

"You will regret it if you don't Lincoln," was all he could manage to say. Sighing he reached out and picked up the Xrays and the MRI's. Taking a breath he turned as he heard the door to Tasha's room slowly open and the frail woman barely able to stand leaning against the door frame. She looked at Kumar and then Lincoln.

"That bad...," she said, not asking, just simply stating the rather obvious at this point.

"Natasha, you need to be in bed," he said quickly but she just shook her head weakly and held her hand out. Dr. Kumar handed her over the fold with her test results in it and flipped through them quickly. She didn't really need to see them, she knew what was going on. She just felt it. She had been through this before. Yet she didn't know how bad, part of her holding on to a chance. Yet the numbers didn't lie. She knew what this meant. She knew it was the end. There was nothing more to do in her mind. Sure they could do the surgery but the chances were so slim why even bother. She would either die tonight or in a week. Before she had been ready for death, figuring there was nothing left for her and that Lincoln was long gone from her life.

Yet he had walked right back in and was there, there was a chance. She wasn't ready to go now. She wanted this last week. A few more days. She didn't care the pain anymore, she just wanted what ever breaths she had left to be with him and to greedily take as many she could. Her eyes seemed empty as she read over it one more time before closing the file and and with some unknown strength managed to chuck the file down the hallway towards the chair that Lincoln had just thrown. Dr. Kumar took a step back as he watched Tasha standing there, her breath heaving and her tiny body fighting to remain as her jawline clenched.

Curling her fingers into fists, nails biting into her palm of her hands, and let out a blood cuddling scream at the top of her lungs. It was nearly amazing to see that she could manage such a feat considering her condition but it was pure raw emotion right then. Tears rolled down her flushed cheeks as her lips split even more than earlier as she let out all her anger and hopelessness flow out of her before she started to collapse towards the floor in a anger filled lump. Stumbling against the wall as she screamed again, her hands clawing at it as she cried in anguish. Shuddering words of no coming from her lips as she sunk lower to the ground.

Well fuck a duck, that sucks.

Tasha nodded as he left, she knew it couldn't be good if Kumar was pulling Lincoln out to talk to him alone. She felt her stomach knot up, she didn't need to hear it. She knew what was coming, she'd been here before. Closing her eyes tight she let out a stuttered breath, still holding the tissue to her lips as a tear trickled down and sting her cheek.

Kumar waited for Lincoln to finish before he began. "We're passed that point Lincoln," he said before taking a seat in one of the visitors chairs in the hallway. Pulling out the xrays and mri's he looked down at them. "The chemotherapy isn't working as well as we would like, and now she has come down with pneumonia," the doctor explained before handing them over to Lincoln and continuing.

He, as delicately as he could, told Lincoln they were at the end. There was little chance that Tasha would make it out the week. The tumor wasn't shrinking, and with the pneumonia setting in she wasn't strong enough for anymore chemotherapy. Sighing he pulled his glasses off his face and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Our only hope is surgery at this point, to try to remove the tumor. Today. But Lincoln, if we do, it's only a small chance she'll wake up. She won't last a week without it, with it, she probably won't last the night."

Sitting there he shook his head and looked back to Lincoln. "You need to say goodbye."

Tasha sighed some what as she lay there and looked up towards Lincoln, she would hear the irritation in his voice. "He's just trying to help, you know as well as he does that as soon as I feel the least bit of energy up will try to get out of this bed to at least pace the room," she said with a small smirk on her lip, trying to lighten the mood somewhat.

It was a mistake, soon as her lip stretched, the dry tattered skin split and started to bleed. Wincing slightly she reached over and grabbed a tissue from the night stand, pressing it to her lip as she grumbled under her breath. Laying her head back she stared at the ceiling. "Maybe I should just stay here. You shouldn't have to stop you life for this. You could go back to work, have a break, get some real rest," she said without looking at him.

She needed constant care at this point and Lincoln had been her nursemaid since everything started. It had to be getting to him at this point and truth be told she didn't want him seeing her like this constantly. Closing her eyes, she tried to push the thought out of her mind. She didn't want him to see her like this but she didn't want to be away from him. Thing was, it might not be up to her much longer. The door slowly openly and Dr. Kumar poked his head in just long enough to motion for Lincoln to join him in the hallway. He had her results.

Dr. Kumar waited and then got to work once Tasha was on the gurney. It was a whirlwind of activity after that. To ICU for iv's, which took nearly twenty minutes to find a vein that would actually take the line, Tasha holding Lincoln's hand and whimpering with each stick of the needle that refused to find what it needed. To Xray and MRI, where Lincoln had to step out of the room and watch through a window as she was moved this way and that.

Tasha just wanted to close her eyes and sleep but there was nothing she could do to achieve that. All the moving, wheeling about, needles, iv's, tests. One after another, only stopping as they would shove a basin to her as she started wretching again and dry heaving until it subsidised. Then back to the gurney and into a private icu room when she all but collapsed, clutching Lincoln's hand with one of her own, and her other wrapped around the key she wore around her neck still.

Dr. Kumar left them alone for a moment. "I need to go wait on the results of her blood work. I will be back as soon as I know something. For now, make her rest," he told Lincoln before he left. Tasha sighed inwardly as she looked over towards Lincoln, feeling nearly defeated at this point. "I should have made you leave," she choked out as she looked away from him and tried not to let her emotions take over.

The nurse hung up the phone and looked over at the empty wheel chair. It seemed that he wasn't putting the doctor down. "This way, I need to get her vitals," the nurse said as she lead Lincoln to a seat back in triage where he could sit down and keep a hold of Natasha. Tasha closed her eyes as she was held in his arms, it was one of the few things that comforted her anymore.

The nurse took her hand, setting the pulse ox meter on her finger before slipping the blood pressure cuff on. Then it fell off. Tasha's arm was far too thin now and she had to end up switching the adult cuff off for one meant for a child. Turning on the automatic blood pressure monitor she handed Tasha the thermometer for her to stick under her own tongue. It wasn't long until vitals were taken and they weren't good. Heart rate was up, pressure was down and her fever was sitting over 104.

Dr. Kumar came in near the end and shook his head. "Lincoln, we need to take her to ICU for a heavy does of intravenous antibiotics and such. She'll need an x-Ray, blood panels, the works," he said as he motioned over to a gurney. "Know you don't want to but you have to lay her down there. Don't worry, well take care of her and you can stay by her side."

Tasha nodded slightly as he got ready, rolling to her side and megarly pushing herself into a half sitting position as she yelped out in pain. God she hated this. It was about at this point last time that she had been moved into the hospital for the rest of her treatments. Back then she had no one to help her, now that she did though she wondered if it was the right choice.

As Lincoln dropped her off in the truck and went back for the bag she stared blankly out at the hotel they called home. The last week's had been strange. She wanted to mend what they had gone through but her cancer had made her try to keep her distance some. It was hard, he was there taking care of her, he slept next to her. She just wanted to stay curled in his arms constantly, she wanted to make plans for the future, but how could she even bring it up when she couldn't even walk back to bed most nights?

Seeing him come back she just sat there, staring out as the city as it passed by and waited for him to park and get her into the ER for now. Her fever was spiking and she felt frozen to the bone, her teeth chattering as she reached out for him to take her inside. She knew the hospital would try to get her in a wheel chair or on a gurney as quickly as possible.

[LAU] Taslin - (Lady A & Char)

Natasha's eyes creased open as she heard Lincoln's voice. Her lips parting to try to speak but her throat was raw and her mouth was parched. The best she could mutter was a gravely hoarse noise that was supposed to be "thank you." sealing her lips she closed her eyes, whimpering slightly as he picked her up, lacing her arms over his shoulders as her head rolled like a rag doll to rest on his chest; tucking her head beneath his chin.

She was in pain, her body feeling like it was burning; as if she had worked out far too hard for far to long. Yet, despite the burning and pain she was freezing to the bone. Her teeth chattering as she curled up on her side when he laid her down. Her skin though was hot to the touch. It seemed in the night a fever had set in. They had been warned that this could happen. Her immune system was shot, she couldn't fight off even the most benign of infections at this point.

Feeling Lincoln trying to comfort her she sighed lightly. She had never wanted him to see her like this but there was no hiding it now. Even if she had had the strength to carry on and try to put up a facade, the physical effects were all too clear. Looking up to him weakly her dry cracked lips thinned. "Hos..pital" she managed to croak out like a drunken frog. She had another round of Chemotherapy that afternoon, but the fever made it clear she needed to go in early.
