Doreen's first stop on her next shift was Samantha.
"Any changes?" she asked of the attending nurse.
"Stable, Ma'am," she answered.
She looked over the area where Samantha's leg was removed. It was healing well but the burns still hid a lot. Internal scans were positive but still, as Doreen looked, the severe burns covering her body would be a problem. Sure, she could give her a good prosthetic and get her healthy again but the physical scars would be a very daunting task. Unsure of where to go with it, she thought of the man who taught her much, John Holliday. If anyone had an idea, he would.
Leaving the room, she went to search him out, stopping in to check on Midori Holliday. Still, she slept but was stable. She stopped at the coffee bar and called John Holliday on her com.
"John, I need to speak with you when you have a minute," she asked, "could you meet me at the coffee bar?"
"I'm with a patient," he answered, "I need about 20 minutes."
"See you then," she replied, sitting over her coffee.
