Medical Log

Medical Log
Patient: Malcolm Reynolds
Diagnosis: multiple contusions to arms and face (cause: bar fight)
Treatment: refused. As usual

Medical Log
Patient: River Tam
Diagnosis: n/a, standard check-up
Treatment: decrease daily drug dosage by two percent
Note: this is the second week I’ve decreased River’s medications, and I’m beginning to feel very hopeful about her condition.

Medical Log
Patient: Simon Tam
Diagnosis: mild concussion, minor contusions, single shallow cut to forearm (cause: impact with ship’s bulkhead during overly-dramatic take-off)
Treatment: cut cleaned and bandaged. Observation of possible brain injury conducted by Kaylee Frye.
Note: (to self) Remember to strap in next time we break atmo.

Medical Log
Patient: Malcolm Reynolds
Diagnosis: multiple contusions to arms and face (cause: bar fight)
Treatment: refused. What a surprise.

Medical Log
Patient: River Tam
Diagnosis: n/a, standard check-up
Treatment: decrease dosage by further two percent

Medical Log
Patient: Jayne Cobb
Diagnosis: bullet wound, graze (cause: job gone bad)
Treatment: cleaned and bandaged. Administered anti-biotic for good measure

Patient: River Tam
Diagnosis: no injuries, mental status stable
Treatment: none
Note: while River’s general condition has improved, she still dislikes her medication. However, in her concern for determining that Jayne was uninjured, she took them without complaint. And, apparently, the reason she’s not hurt is because Jayne took the shot for her. I think they’re both changing each other for the better. Not sure how to feel about that

Medical Log
Patient: Malcolm Reynolds
Diagnosis: multiple contusions to arms and face (cause: bar fight)
Treatment: refused. Again.
Note: this is the last one- he gets sedated next time

Medical Log
Patient: River Tam
Diagnosis: n/a, standard check-up
Treatment: decreased a further two percent
Note: Jayne was waiting outside the infirmary for River, and… I think I’m okay with that.
