Two days after Ross had staggered into the office, He became fallen again, by a severely upset stomach, more severe migraines, and severe exhaustion
Ross needed treatment for his condition immediately, and he tried several doctors listed who were no longer in practice, and several more he got on the phone, could not give him an appointment for long periods of time.
Simply put, Ross could not tolerate the pain in either his head or his stomach.
One night, after working a very short day in huge agony, Ross staggered home and he said.
"Maybe I should give up the ghost, put the company up for sale, and either retire, or only have a few clients who I only service at home. I cannot run a major company in the condition I'm in" Ross said.
"Ross, I love you more than anyone and anything in the world. I am so heartbroken that you are in his condition. I will always stand beside you no matter what. Honey, I think that would not be a good long term decision. I want to believe that it will turn out like it has in the past. You have been knocked down so many times, and bounced right back up. I want to believe that this is just a terrible period for us, and that you will get better" Kayley said lovingly. .
"Kale, look at it. Every time I think I feel better for a day or two, I get another massive migraine where I cannot get out of bed, or I cannot keep food down."
"Ross, somewhere, there is a doctor who will be available to help you. Even if we have to hire a nurse for however long, take you on a plane, and travel anywhere in the country or the world to get treattment, that is just what we will have to do" Kayley said.
"Kayley I have all the worst symptoms of a severe migraine, extreme pain, extreme headache, severely upset stomach, and as you know I cannot even keep my head up from the pain. How the Hell can I accomplish anything with that?" Ross said firmly.
"As I said, honey,. I am heartbroken for you, and here for you always no matter what. I just believe in my heart that in some way, somehow, we and some Doctor out there will figure this out! " Kayley said.
Three days later after this conversation, in the morning, Ross felt very weak, but thought he felt a bit better. He painfully dressed in jeans and a polo shirt, called n Uber, and rode to the office. Victor smiled at Ross when Victor saw him. "I hope you can stay here with us , this time, Boss" Victor said.
"Thanks, buddy, I hope so too, for everyone's sake" Ross replied.
Ross made a pot of hot tea in his personal office, started sipping it, and thought perhaps he felt slightly stronger.
Then around noon, in the outer area right outside Ross's personal office, Ross collapsed in pain, holding his head.
Victor raced toward Ross, helped him up along with another worker, led him toward the couch, and covered him with a blanket that was in Ross's office.
"Do you want me to call Kayley, or 911?" Victor said.
"No, please dont do that. No Kayley or 911. (Ross kicked off his shoes) Let me lie here and see if I can sleep this off If I dont feel better, I will call a nurse from the visiting nurses company we've been using, have them take me home, and sit with me in the bedroom until Kayley gets home, and then leave. I dont want to upset her in the middle of her teaching day. The poor woman has been through enough" Ross said quietly.
Ross lied on the couch in severe pain. He felt like he had no energy at all. He could not fall asleep, but even walking a few steps to sit at his desk, was a chore.
At 3 pm, Ross opened his eyes, and said to Victor, who had checked on him.
"Thats it, I give up. I'm calling a nurse, and going home to the apartment with one in an Uber. I'm not going to say anything to Kayley until she gets home. When I get there, we will figure something out" Ross said.
"Okay, Good Luck, Ross, everyone is praying for you" Victor said.
A vesting nurse came to the office, helped Ross into an Uber Ross had called, and escorted Ross up to the apartment. Kayley had just gotten home.
"Ross is that you?" Kayley asked.
"Yes, its me, and a nurse. I collapsed at the office from a headache, a nurse is with me, and going to help me get undressed and into bed" Ross said , trying to stay calm.
Kayley came running into the living room. "Oh, My God! Let';s get him undressed and into bed" Kayley said.
The nurse and Kayley led Ross into the bedroom, and got him undressed. They helped Ross into bed in his boxer shorts, and covered him. Ross was in agony, and was shivering.
The nurse took Ross's temp. "Kayley, he does not have a fever. This is all probably just from the pain of the headache, and no energy" The nurse said.
"I want us to take you to the hospital!" Kayley said.
"No, Kale, listen to me, no hospital. Let me just lie here" Ross said quietly.
"Can you please stay, or get someone to relieve you, so we wont be alone?" Kayley asked the nurse.
"My shift is over, Miss Kayley, but I will call the company, and get a night nurse to relieve me until tomorrow morning. After that, maybe you have to consider taking Mister
Ross to the hospital" The nurse said.
"Did you hear that, want to be Superman? Hospital! Enough is Enough!" Kayley exclaimed.
"Kale , please, I am too tired to talk about it. Let's just call the night nurse so we wont be alone. If I have to go to the ER, I will go. For now all I want to do is lie here, and try to sleep this off" Ross said.
Kayley sighed. "Okay, please just call the night nurse so they can take care of Ross. I will figure this out in the morning"
"Yes, Miss Kayley" The nurse said.
The night nurse came, and the day nurse left.
Ross was sleeping on and off, and was able to take a bit of food and water and such to take his meds. Besides that, all he did was writhe in pain, and sleep on and off.
When it came time for bed, Ross said. "Kale, please go sleep somewhere else, like the sleep sofa in the living room. If this is contagious, I dont want you to get it" Ross said.
"No! Its not contagious! I want to sleep here with you. I want to be as close to you as possible" Kayley said.
When Kayley was getting into bed, she tried to lie on her side, but she wanted to be close to Ross. She put her feet on Ross' s legs, and he said. "Kale, your feet are cold"
Kayley felt the soles of her own feet. They were anything but cold.
Ross was in agony, and Kayley, in spite of taking a sleeping pill, slept only at very short intervals. She was worried sick about her Ross.,
Ross opened his eyes about 3 am. Kayley was resting next to him. Ross asked the nurse to help Ross to the bathroom to urinate. The nurse helped Ross, Ross took care of what he had to , and staggered back to bed.
"You know I'm not sleeping Mister CEO. I'm heartsick, but I'm also fed up. I'm prepared to take drastic action if I have to" Kayley said firmly.
"What are you going to do, big shot? Serve me with divorce papers for being sick? That will make you look like the coldest wife on the face of the planet" Ross snapped.
"I wont serve you with divorce papers, but I'm also fed up with all this! If you do not find someone to help you with this in a very short time, I will drag you to any place in this world if I have to, to get you help! You got that?" Kayley said firmly.
"Yes, I got it. Please no more talk. Please let me go back to sleep" Ross said
"Even if you awaken tomorrow and feel better, if you try to even think of going anywhere near the you know where, I'm going to let you have it! " Kayley said.
"Oh, I am not going anywhere near the you know where. I will lie here , rest, sleep, and just try to get a doctor. You can go in. I will have a nurse sit with me all day" Ross said.
The crisis seemed to be getting worse.
Somewhere, there had to be someone to help Ross.
Where was that someone?
