Sam went to stand just inside the doorway of Sash's room so he could get the gist of what was going on. Sam was a cardiothoracic surgeon, he wasn't foreign to critically ill patients having seizures in the ICU. That didn't make it any less confronting when it happened to someone in your own family. Being a doctor didn't make seeing the people you loved suffering. He was just glad Justin was out for the count and couldn't witness this. It would be the straw that broke the camel's back on his mental state. When he got back to Justin's bedside, Mark looked like hell. Terror was written all over his face and Sam knew how fragile Mark's own mental state was. He patted his brother's back, coaxing him to sit again. Once Mark had flopped heavily back into the chair, Sam sat beside him and started to softly rub his back.

"They're going to take him for another MRI to make sure there's not another bleed. Seizures can be caused by a lot of things but I know what you're thinking. It's too early to know if the brain injury has caused any long-term damage. He can completely recover but they aren't going to know until the brain has a chance to heal. Brain injuries are complex. We won't know the full story until he wakes up and his cognitive functioning can be assessed. You should go home and try to get some sleep, Sparky. I can stay here with the boys. Any of us can. You need to try to get some rest," he urged, knowing it could be a pointless plight because Mark could be extremely stubborn but he had to try.
