What can I do? I'm just a neurosurgeon?

Nightshift with Dr. Sal

“What? No!” Will looked shocked. “Can someone legit survive an ax wound to the head? That’s insane. No. I am just here because I fell and hit my head and they said I had to have a consult with you before they would let me go home.”

When Sal finally looked up, he was not looking at the burly 45 year old african american man he was supposed to be speaking to. The guy wasn’t even close, he was some scrawny little ginger boy. Not that Sal wasn’t going to do his job anyway, he laughed, handing the chart to a passing nurse and winking at her as he spoke “My apologies, I guess someone brought me the wrong chart.” he picked up the clipboard hanging from the bed. “Alright Mr. Capulet, I’m Dr. Verducci, please follow the light with your eyes.” Sal flicked on the small flashlight in the pocket of his white coat, “How did you fall exactly?”

Nightshift with Dr. Sal

After being home for a certain amount of time, Sal had begun to relax, get into his usual pattern of being. That did not include finding a claim, or being in a claim, or ever loving a woman again. He’d put that part of him in a box, he’d locked away that box, and then promptly forgotten where the key was. His last three psychiatrists had quit, and he was fine with it. Until now. Now he needed to find a claim. The careful disruption of the life he’d planned out was so viciously ripped away, because if he didn’t take steps at least, to find claim, he would be of no use because he could very well be the reason the Verducci’s would be ripped out of Verona, even though he’d never done a thing... only that wasn’t exactly true. He liked to believe he was innocent, but he wasn’t.

Sal pulled aside the curtain, his face still buried in the chart. “So we have a skull fracture from an ax wound into the left temporal lobe a few years ago, we did repairs and you’re just here for a follow-up? Have you been having any memory or speech issues since?”
