Old habits die hard. I still find myself saying “Computer, record log” before realising that a) I’m not required to record logs in an official capacity anymore and b) there is no computer ready to record my every word. Ever since the island changed (for what, the 600th time this year?) the urge has increased. There is a lot going on in the lab, even more in the clinic, and I’m finding myself working more and sleeping even less than usual - although doing admirably in hiding it from Abby. I think. She hasn’t tied me to a bed yet, in any case.
No. Not thinking about Abby in that context, I’ll never get anything done.
So, I record my log mentally instead.
Ex-Chief Medical Officer’s log, stardate who-the-hell-knows. Sara’s case is continuing to be a source of some frustration, all indications are that the cause of her illness has been narrowed down enough to start working on a treatment in conjunction with Dr Crusher. Despite the progress so far, I can’t help but see the half empty glass. If Sara had fallen ill on the station, or under Dr Crusher’s care on the Enterprise for that matter, she would have been up and about almost immediately. It’s incredibly difficult to be working under these conditions, particularly when the patient is suffering to this degree.
Sometimes I think I should have spent some more time practicing my “professional detachment” and less time trying to stay under the radar at Medical School.
[OOC: Bashir is in the vicinity of the clinic/lab - are we surprised? Available for general lab/clinic business or to work some more on Sara’s disease-plot or just whatever...he was being loud. ST totally cool.]
