Chapter: 11 Unbreakable

POV: Matt Casey

"Suicide doesn't end the chances of life getting any Worse. It eliminates the possibility of it getting any better." Those words haunt my brain as I sit in the ER awaiting news of the boy I pulled off the bridge. He was seconds away from death, and I saved him.

Some people would call it fate. I call it an Angel is watching over us. I call her Shay. She saved his life, and probably mine in the process, why didn't she save Brett? How could She let this happen?

"Shit, what a night this has been."

I turn, seeing Herrmann slide in the seat next to me. "We lose Brett; we almost lose Gabby."

"Wait; what? Gabby, is here?"

"Yeah, room three with Dr. Becker she tried to take her own life."

My feet are up before my mind has made sense of his words. "Sir, you can't go in there." April moves in front of me with lighting speed. "I have to, I have seen my wife."

"Matt, she's requested no visitors, including you. I'm sorry you'll have to wait till she clears you."

As mad as she is at me, that's never going to happen. God, can tonight get any worse? "Matt?" My head snaps up when I see Dr. Becker come out of her room. "How is she?"

"Gabby has a long road ahead of her, but she's willing to do the work, that's a big start."

"I don't understand why this happened? How could ton of our best, brightest, most confident people do this?"

"You want my opinion?"

"Yes, someone needs to explain this to me, please!"

"Suicide is the most sincere form of self-criticism. Brett left a letter stating how she try felt, maybe the fight with Gabby had a lot to do with it. Honestly, I think it went more profound than that. I Didn't read her whole letter haven't had much time. In my experience, though people who commit sSuicide doesn't want to die, t; then the pain to end. They don't see any light at the end of a deep dark tunnel. Gabby blames herself and hate's herself right now. With therapy and time and maybe some medication, she can get through this. She'll need help, though. From all of you."

"Gabby of all people, she always seems so strong self-assured, unbreakable. I can't wrap my brain around this."

"We're human, Matt; we are all capable of breaking; the human spirit can be crushed, beaten broken, but it can also, rise again. Gabby wants to live; you got through to the young man tonight. We saved two lives. I know its heartbreaking that we lost Brett, and there will be time to grieve. Right now, though, be thankful, Gabby, and this young man made it through that tunnel."

"How done get through this?"

Ava places her hand on my shoulder, smiling softly and sadly, "One day at a time. Matt, as a first r, responder, You know the outcome, I am not always what we want. As a doctor, it's my job to save people. When I lose a patient, it kills a part of my heart. I feel as if I have failed. Tonight I didn't just lose a patient. I lost a friend, so I get it. All we can do is remember this We cannot tear a single page out of our book, but we can toss the whole damn thing into the fire. We can't change tonight, but we can throw the book out and make a new novel—one where we learn from our mistakes and do better. So there is never another regret like this."
