If you are a fan of cop shows, Mighty Morphin Power rangers, Amy jo Johnson or Veronica mars and you have not watched Flashpoint you should check it out its an amazing show about police officers from an elite unit called SRU based on the Canadian ETF, the members included Sargent Gregory "greg" parker played by Enrico Colantoni, Edward "ed" Lane played by Hugh dillion, Julianna " jules" Callaghan played by Amy Jo Johnson, Samuel w "sam" Braddock played by David Paetkau, Kevin " wordy" wordsworth played by Michael Cram, Michelangelo "spike" Scarlatti played by Sergio Di-Zio and Lewis " lou" Young played by Mark Taylor. It follows the lives of these 7 officers as they keep the peace because one moment changes Everything. This show has everything from action to heartfelt moment these are not just police officers arresting criminals, these are police talking them down from the ledge and figuring out what brought them to this point and why they are doing what they are doing. The scenery is beautiful, the writing is fantastic and the cast is amazing, I just wish it went on for longer, but as a creator to have the honor to end your show and go out with a bang when you want is an amazing honor that most shows don't get. It ran from July 11th 2008 to December 13th 2012, it had 5 seasons and 75 episodes.

Part 14

Sam Braddock: pov as my eyes slowly open I realize it's morning I reach over to the table on the side of the bed and grab my phone to check the time. It's almost 7am. I also have a text from Greg asking if I know when Jules will be released. I text him back letting him know I have no idea when she will be released but it could be today with how good she is doing. I don't usually sleep this late. I carefully extract myself from the bed without waking up Jules and quickly get changed and brush my teeth. I can hear the door open in Jules's room. It must be a nurse or a Dr. Once I'm done in the bathroom I walk back into the room to put my toiletries away. The sound I heard was nurse fisher checking Jules's vitals, it looks like she is waking up. Hey beautiful, how did you sleep?

Jules Callaghan: pov good, what time is it.

Sam Braddock: pov a little after 7am.

Nurse fisher: pov your vitals look good Jules, I know you want to get out of here bad. The Dr should be in here soon; he's running a little behind today. In the meantime what would you like to eat for breakfast? Your options are oatmeal, yogurt, smoothie, soup, apple sauce, banana’s, jello and eggs if you want to give them a try.

Jules Callaghan: pov a fruit smoothie sounds nice with some oatmeal on the side.

Nurse fisher: pov Sam if you want i can also get you the same thing for breakfast.

Sam Braddock: pov that's very nice of you, yes I would love the same thing.

Nurse fisher: pov I will be back soon with your breakfast.

Sam Braddock: pov you hear that Jules the Dr should be in here soon to see if you can be released. Any ideas on what we should do for our anniversary of when we started dating. It's coming up in a bit, I'm thinking maybe something outdoors like hiking or repelling.

Jules Callaghan: pov that sounds nice, maybe we can ask Greg for a Monday off and leave after work on that Friday. That way we will have 3 full days off and some of Friday to travel somewhere nice.

Sam Braddock: pov maybe we can rent a cabin in the woods.

Jules Callaghan: pov that sounds nice. The nurse is back with our food which looks amazing. Between slurps of my smoothie I ask Sam if we are exchanging gifts for our anniversary?

Sam Braddock: pov a vacation is enough for me but if you want to get me something then that's okay.

Nurse fisher: pov I clean everything up from breakfast.

Dr Mitchell: pov hello Jules how are you doing this morning.?

Jules Callaghan: pov good just ready to get out of here.

Dr Mitchell: pov i’m happy to report that you can be discharged your vitals from this morning looked amazing, I need to go over a few important things with the both of you.

Jules Callaghan: pov after going over everything and what symptoms to look out for I can get dressed. What about work?

Dr Mitchell: pov you will need to make a follow-up appointment before you can be cleared to go back to work. I will go get nurse Fisher with your discharge papers and to unplug you from the monitors.

Sam Braddock: pov I help Jules change while the Dr goes and gets nurse fisher.

Nurse fisher: pov you're all set to go, you can make your follow-up appointment with the receptionist before you leave. Also you need to use the wheelchair to leave the hospital Dr's orders.

Jules Callaghan: pov i'm not too happy about having to leave in a wheelchair, after making my follow-up appointment Sam heads to the parking lot to drive the car up closer to the exit. Nurse fisher pushes my chair close to the car door so I can get in easier.

Sam Braddock: pov once Jules is in the car I pull into a parking spot so I can text Greg to let him know Jules just got released and I will update him later. Let's head home.

Jules Callaghan: pov Can we stop at HQ to say hi to the boys.

Sam Braddock: pov sure you can see the guys but you're supposed to be at home resting how about this we head home so you can take a nap then we can bring the guys lunch when they are not on call.

Jules Callaghan: pov deal that sounds nice.

Sam Braddock: pov I will text Greg, we can also get lunch for the other teams on shift at the station. Let's get you in bed for a nap. The Dr said you might be sleepy/fatigued for a bit but it will get better.

Jules Callaghan: pov can you lay with me.

Sam Braddock: pov Sure no problem I can use a nap, it's hard to sleep in a hospital. I set an alarm so I don't sleep too long. Jules is asleep quickly. I can feel myself slowly start to fall asleep, after what feels like a few minutes but it's actually been an hour and a half. I wake up and call Winnie to ask if team one is still at HQ because Jules wants to stop by and bring them lunch. I would have called Greg but I don't want to bother him in case team one is on a hot call.

Winnie Camden: pov so far team one has had no hot call today team 3 is on a hot call at the moment but from the sounds of it it's almost over.

Part 13

Sam: pov Jules has been working on one of her diy kits for a bit while I watched a hockey game on TV. Now that the game is over I decided to do some push up on the floor as exercise. 

Nurse fisher: pov constable Braddock  why are you on the floor and Is everything okay?

Sam: pov everything is fine just doing some push ups since I don't want to leave Jules and can't get to the gym for my normal workout. 

Nurse fisher: pov that makes sense, how are you doing Jules.

Jules: pov good.

Nurse fisher: pov no weird symptoms. 

Jules: pov no.

Sam: pov we've been keeping an eye out for them the Dr told us to.

Nurse fisher: pov her vitals look great, considering what happened to her that is amazing. 

Sam: pov I got Jell-O apple sauce and bananas at the store would you like some.

Jules: pov sure, a banana is fine they have to go first anyway. 

Sam: pov what flavor of electrolyte drink would you pink.

Jules: pov Is there any pink ones?.

Sam: pov sure is. While she eats her snack and drinks her drink  I eat a granola bar and drink some water. You look sleepy, it might be time for bed.

Jules: pov can you get in bed with me.

Sam: pov sure, I just need to change and brush my teeth. Let's get you to the bathroom before bed while you are in there you can brush your teeth.

Jules: pov good idea.

Sam: pov I will grab our toiletries and a change of clothes while you get out of bed. Then I can change while you go pee. 

Jules: pov what I don't get to watch you change. 

Sam: pov it's not like i’m changing in the room a nurse could walk in. I'm talking about changing in the bathroom while you pee and  wash your hands.

Jules: pov oh. I make sure my wires aren't tangled as I get out of bed, the walk to the bathroom is short.   

Sam: pov I got everything we need. I take off my shirt first and put on an old military shirt I sleep in after that I take off my pants and put on some comfy ones to sleep in. 

Jules: pov as me and Sam are brushing our teeth i can hear a nurse in the room it seems like she is looking for Sam for some reason.  It sounds like nurse fisher.

Sam: pov hey nurse Fisher were you looking for me.

Nurse fisher: pov actually yes, there is a patient down stairs who was just brought in, former military guy the Drs are concerned that he still thinks he's over there fighting the war.

Sam: pov do they think he has ptsd.

Nurse fisher: pov there not sure, it's making it hard to treat him he needs tests and stuff. He came in for another reason. The psychological isn't getting through to him and the Dr's don't want to sedate him. Maybe you can help with you being SRU and former military. I was wondering if you would be willing to talk with him soldier to soldier.

Sam: pov sure i’m willing to try. I will be back soon, Jules.

Nurse fisher: pov thank you so much for doing this. I tell Sam as much info as I can while we walk to the exam room. Dr Klein this is Sam Braddock.

Psychologist Dr Klein: pov nice to meet you nurse fisher said you were in the military. 

Sam: pov yes JTF2 served  2  tours one of them was operation kbar.

Psychologist Dr Klein: pov Nurse fisher said you might be able to help and I'm willing to try anything. The Dr is with him now. 

Sam: pov hi kayden, master corporal Braddock here can you tell me how you are feeling today. 

Kayden: pov my head hurts, but I can't leave my post in case we come under enemy fire. 

Sam: pov i took care of everything, these nice people want to check to make sure you are okay and don't have a concussion. Is that okay with you? I can stay with you for a bit if you want.

Kayden: pov but then who will be watching my post.

Sam: pov I got that taken care of you don't need to worry. How about we talk while they check you out, keep your mind occupied.

Kayden: pov sure.

Sam: pov how did your head get hurt.

Kayden: pov I heard enemy fire and the next thing I know i’m on the ground and my head hurts. 

Sam: pov it's obvious to me this guy has ptsd and a concussion from a bad fall. Dr Markaway explains everything he is going to do to Kayden before he does it. Why don't you tell me about where you served.

Kayden: pov my unit was stationed in the middle east 6 of my unit never made it, our camp was attacked in the middle of the night I took cover in the tent and eliminated the enemies. 

Sam: pov  i know what it's like to lose a team mate, i served in JTF2 served  2  tours one of them was operation kbar. I lost my best friend Matt in a friendly fire incident where I was cleared to fire. The military sent me home a few days later because they were concerned it would affect how I did my job. I’m now a police officer saving lives instead of taking them. It's okay to not be okay, nobody is perfect. I thought I left the war behind until a team member of mine, a police officer named Lou Young, stepped on a landmine during a bomb call. He didn't make it. I thought I let him down. I have experience with landmines and I couldn't even help him. 

Kayden: pov it's okay I felt the same when I couldn't help my unit and they died. 

Dr Markaway: pov Kayden I need to take you for scans to make sure everything is okay with your head. I think you hit it pretty hard.

Kayden: pov can Sam stay with me and talk.

Dr Markaway: pov that's fine as long as Dr Klein is allowed to come.

Kayden: pov sure. 

Sam: pov me and kayden chatted for a while the technician in the scan room gave me a headset so I can talk with him during the scan. Afterwards they got him settled in his room. I will talk to you soon. You have my number, call whenever you need to talk. Dr Klein pulls me aside to thank me. 

Dr Klein: pov because of you I got so much  information and I can now properly treat Kayden on top of the possible concussion he is definitely dealing with post traumatic stress disorder.

Part 12

Sam: pov since Jules is done eating Dr Mitchell who is now in her room wants to take her for some special tests just as a precaution given her medical history of being exposed to anthrax, plus she technically overdosed the other day.

Jules Callaghan: pov I can't wait to get out of here, after being shot, which was a through and through. I had to spend some extra time in the hospital because I was having some issues with my left arm. Then I was exposed to anthrax and had a piece of shrapnel in my left arm which hit an artery causing me to almost bleed to death so yeah i’m done with hospitals.

Dr Mitchell: pov if all her scans/tests look good I don't see why she can't possibly go home tomorrow she would have to take it easy for a bit and need a follow up visit before being cleared for duty.

Jules Callaghan: pov i’m so happy.

Sam: pov what type of tests are we talking about.

Dr Mitchell: pov a lung test, some blood work and a normal physical just to make sure we didn't miss anything. I haven't seen any concerns so this is just a precaution. Nurse fisher can draw your blood for testing. It shouldn't take too long to get the results.

Nurse fisher: pov you have to blow into this thing it helps us see how your lung function is.

Dr Mitchell: pov her lung function looks okay for someone who inhaled anthrax. She's doing good after what happened to her. Now given what happened to her she's going to be more tired for a bit since she technically overdosed. I would like to get her up and moving for a little bit to see how she is on her feet. It is possible for her to develop symptoms a few days after so be on the look out for weird symptoms. If Jules is up to it she can take a short walk around the ward, a nurse would have to go also.

Jules: pov I don't mind, I would love to go for a walk.

Dr Mitchell: pov great a few of the monitors will have to come with you since you are still being monitored and getting IV fluids.

Nurse fisher: pov are you ready to go.

Jules: pov yeas I am.

Nurse fisher: pov Sam said you guys were cops. Is there any chance you guys can come back after she gets released in your full gear? It would make some of the kids so happy to see a police officer, especially a woman one.

Sam braddock: pov no problem we can set that up. The nurse is pushing the pole with the monitors. Let's talk while we walk around the ward.

Jules: pov nurse fisher what made you want to be a nurse.

Nurse fisher: pov lost my mom to cancer and dad had a stroke, he is good now, plus I love helping people and making them feel better. I have 3 kids, 2 girls and a boy. 1 is still in college and the other 2 graduated a few years ago. What made you both want to be cops.

Jules: pov my dad is a retired cop he was actually on scene during the clock tower sniper incident. After my mom died I got in trouble with the law and this woman cop really helped me and I wanted to be like her and help people.

Nurse fisher: pov your dad must be proud of you following in her footsteps.

Jules: pov he doesn't like that I'm a cop he still sees me as his little girl.

Nurse fisher: pov that makes sense and given you size he probably worries. and you Sam.

Sam Braddock: pov my dad is in the military. I was walking to the park with my little sister when I was nine and a car jumped the curb and hit her. After that my family didn't want to talk about it. I joined the military like my dad and served 2 tours one of them was operation kbar. I lost my best friend in a friendly fire incident where I was cleared to fire. After that I wanted a change and decided to become a police officer and I love it. Now I save people's lives instead of ending them.

Nurse fisher: pov that's awesome that you are both cops and became ones for different reasons. I would keep in mind that secondary trauma can happen in first responders and you should keep an eye out for the symptoms.

Jules: pov good to know.

Sam: pov you're doing so good jules, that's it one foot in front of the other.

Nurse fisher: pov do you need a break.

Jules: pov no i’m good.

Nurse fisher: pov am I correct that you are together.

Jules: pov yes for a few years.

Sam: pov she almost shot me the first time I met her

Nurse fisher: pov no way.

Jules: pov I was putting my Remy away and he started talking about showing me his colt and then reached into his pocket.

Sam: pov yeah for a photo, by the way your post incident reflects are fantastic.

Jules: pov why thank you.

Nurse fisher: pov you too are so cute, when did you start dating.

Jules: pov a few weeks after we met, he told me the first time we met that he never saw a lady sniper before and he thought it was kind of sexy after that he asked me out. Sam and I secretly dated for awhile. Then I got shot and I broke up with him so we could be on the same team. Then about a year and a half later we realized that our feelings for each other weren't going to go away and for a second time we secretly dated until the commander said it was okay.

Nurse fisher: pov time to head back to your room. You did great.

Sam: pov do you want to do something else or take a nap.
