Ted grabs his jacket and follows, glad they both get to go. He wouldn't want Sherlock to have to sit and wait on his own, not with how close they are.
It's a scary sight. But it's also not too different from seeing her in the ambulance, so Sherlock is probably more horrified than Ted is, seeing it for the first time. But even without the shock, it's still heartbreaking.
Ted gently grips Sherlock's shoulder for a moment, a gesture of comfort and solidarity, before heading over to Joan's side. He leans his crutch against a chair and drops the jacket over the back, before approaching the bed.
He feels like he should be quiet, gentle. The room is so still, creepily so.
"Hey, Joan," he says softly, reaching out to take her hand.
