084. Diagnosis

[vicodincrutch]

And then there was one blind man. Circumstances beyond my means or understanding have deprived a sound, logical medical investigation. Or as I like to say--got the easy way out. Heartwarming, wonderful in that way that Hallmark hopes to mimic every time, isn't it?

There's work still to be done. I haven't seen Dr. Deus Ex Machina around here to pick

Doctor Wilson sounded too corporate. He didn't tell you about his struggle with 'the man'?

Angelic onset cortical blindness is a new one.

Man struggling? Poor lonely sap.

There has to be more to it.

Didn't his girlfriend go home? Could explain why he's picking up urchins.

Ask the 'Angel.'

[vicodincrutch]

At least he leaves his pager on. The better to rush in at a moment's notice.

[vicodincrutch]

Oh he does. But it has to be very special.

You haven't answered the question: can you fix it, Doc?

[vicodincrutch]

I can diagnose and recommend treatment. People aren't waterheaters.

[miss_waldorf]

Wow, that actually sounds humane.

[vicodincrutch]

Get your hearing checked, then.

[sapanwood]

...That doesn't sound heartwarming at all.

[vicodincrutch]

My sentiments exactly.

[sapanwood]

I thought doctors were supposed to be nice, or at least pretend to be nice. Not sarcastic.

[vicodincrutch]

In other words, you don't expect doctors to be people with opinions.

What the fuck does "an Eden of his very own" mean?

[vicodincrutch]

An underage assistant slash accomplice. I don't think she cooks.

[eiremagic]

See, then you've got the better end of the deal.

[vicodincrutch]

Well, duh. You also can sit in on a differential diagnosis as well as play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon at the same time.
