( And that's it from Sarissa for a bit. She's drifting out of consciousness when the ambulance arrives, and passes in and out of awareness on the way to the hospital. It feels a little like she's falling, always falling without ever landing. Gravity keeps on pulling but it never brings her back to reality.
There's surgery, and then there's more inevitable sleep, but not the sort a person ever feels rested from once they wake up.
She's been spending too long in this bloody hospital. Been making Sarah be here too much, too. Her first instinct on waking up is to give Sarah a little wave with her left hand. She feels the awareness of the gesture being carried out, even though she remembers that it cannot in the next breath.
Inhale, exhale. You're still alive. It doesn't make it less of a shock, but it's— something. )
