Fourth Doctor

Clara was born at home in 2008. She has two older sisters, twelve-year-old Mae and fourteen-year-old Avery. She also has two cats named Alex and Jerry. Clara is a very happy and joyful girl. Once in a place called Elora, there was a girl named Bella. She was fifteen years old. She had two sisters named Tate and Fae. One Friday morning, when everybody was eating breakfast (except for Tate, who was finding her outfit for the third time), Fae whispered to Bella, “Tate is such a drama queen.”…

On October 23,2017 it has been two months since the surgery and it’s been a struggle in the past two months. From walking around on crutches and in a big bulky brace for a month and a half to getting the brace off and being able to walk by myself. Being two out of surgery and having five scars on my legs to being scared to bend my leg the wrong way I do get scared to walk and turn the wrong way. A couple weeks ago I was in art class and I dropped my picture I was painting on the ground and…

“Good bye honey, I love you!” called Mrs. Stromson. Maria burst through the rickety screen door, and started off for school. She departed her house 15 minutes later than she normally did, and was in a hurry to reach class on time. The casual three mile walk had now turned into a three mile dash. Maria had never been tardy to class, let alone even missed a day! She glanced down at her watch, “I have 4 minutes to run ¾ of a mile, and to be in class.” Maria huffed and puffed as she rounded the…

while, I learned there was no point in flinching when the needle hit my skin. With each test, I would suffer from severe headaches, rashes, joint swelling and pain. Each doctor gave me a new diagnosis of what could be wrong with me. These opinions ranged from allergies, cancer and even a brain tumor. After years of doctor visits, numerous appointments in both Children's Hospital of Denver and Jewish National Hospital, a common source to my illness began to emerge. I have a systemic allergy…

In this case, we usually refer to these people at work as “book smart only.” By comparison, we can be introduced to Suzy the Nurse Supervisor and not realize she is just as smart as the doctor, she is standing next to with her IQ and all the knowledge that she has acquired from being present to hear, see and listen through her over ten years of on the job experiences but lacks the credentialing of a physician. Further, as we read Chapter…

The dreaded evening lull. That is what emergency room physicians detest, to see a steady, and reliable flow of patients, slow, to a trickle. You can hear the audible click of the clock as the waiting room empties, and as the waiting room quiets, the halls swell with a steady orchestra of monitors, alarms, and chit chat. Myself, well, I could be found in no routine location, no designated cubicle, but rather on a WOW, a workplace on wheels. See, I was an emergency department physician scribe, for…

Help! Someone, please… Can someone call an ambulance?” As I was slowly bleeding out, this nice man had come over and had called an ambulance. After a few minutes I started to lose consciousness, and I eventually passed out. “Where am I?” yelled! The doctor replied, “You’re in a hospital.” “What happened?” I softly asked. He replied saying, “Well you got hit by a car while you were riding your bike, and you had some minor head injuries. But it’s nothing to worry about.” “Oh,” I replied. He told…

I am sorry that I missed your cal'ls today. Im not long home with Eti in bed. I spoke with Sally Glossop today and she advised me to keep Eti out of school untill after half term. She thought that it would cause far to much anxiety to come to school at a time like this. I must say that I do agree with her and so would anyone else that is working with Eti on a mental/ medical level. I know you need your attendence numbers up and you need to keep ofsted happy but I must put Eti first. As you…

nurse there was a reason. It isn’t expected of me to do this but when it comes to needles and tubes going up my nose I wasn’t too thrilled. Nurse Kim escorted me to my pre op room to prepare for my knee surgery. I’m not necessarily scared of the doctors or nurses but I just watched a whole season of Grey’s Anatomy before my surgery so in my mind, the simplest surgery can end in death with one mistake. The gown was very plain and open in the back, not the cutest thing in the world but it…

story, the doctor is perceived in a way of being a lower class. The doctor becomes frustrated with the patient parents because, of how they treat him. William Carlos Williams, in the story “The Use of Forces,” the doctor states “when I arrived I was met by the mother… very clean and apologetic who merely said, Is this the doctor?” (paragraph 2). This quote shows how the lady and the doctor are, from two different classes. The lady also questions the doctor, as if, he was not the doctor. A sense…
