When Kevin finally caught his senses, he saw Rachel's mouth moving. Dazed, he couldn't understand what she was trying to say. The patient had been stabilized and the nurse headed out to inform the family about her condition.
As Kevin washed and sanitized himself, Rachel followed the patient into the ICU.
The patient's mother and sister followed close behind.
After the patient was sent into the ICU, the elderly woman gently grabbed Rachel's hand. With tears streaming down her face, she choked a brief thank you to her.
