Re: Patient and Spouse: Sorell and Nida

Summer didn't answer; she needed all her breath for the run. Down the hall, to the left, thank goodness they were on the same floor because the elevator would almost certainly take too long. Half an hour... a lot of it would already have been absorbed. This woman needed activated charcoal, anticonvulsants, an IV, intubation...

Intubate first, she decided, breathing was most important. Then the charcoal. Anticonvulsants next, to calm her down, keep her from hurting herself, and then she could worry about liquids. Into the ER and sweeping past the patient rooms, into a surgical unit, and there was a ventilator. Summer brought the gurney up short and jumped for the tube.
