Now is Not the Time

[drmcsteamy]

There's never really a good time to go to the hospital these days, so I quit trying to plan it. I quit trying to figure out when to sneak in. I just need to get a few things out of the office that used to be mine and head back home. Maggie is at school and I need to go to the grocery store and I can't make any more excuses as to why I can't do it

This patient is wearing on my last nerve, and my last bit of patience. Her burns have gone untreated for so long, and they're stubborn. Her body is stubborn. It doesn't want to heal. I take her chart and head to Mark's office to 'borrow' a book. What I find is even better.

"You're back?"

"No," I answer without looking up, "I'm cleaning out my office."

"Of course you are. Well, you can't now. I have an impossible case, and I need your books."

"I'll leave the books."
