Beaten, Working Toward Recovery Chapter 3
The first thing Alice’s Doctor did when she saw Alice was remove the binding from around her chest, muttering under her breath about the uselessness of the binding. She explained that for the next few weeks Alice would continue to be in pain, but it would lessen with time. She was to avoid strenuous activity, and be careful not to bump the injured ribs. She could apply heat to the injury to help relieve pain, by using a warm heating pad, whirlpool bath, or warm, moist towels. They needed to call her if Alice develop a high temperature, or develop a cough or started to cough up mucus or blood. She was to go straight to the ER and have them call her if she started to have trouble breathing, developed nausea, vomiting, or abdominal pain, or if her pain started to gets a lot worse. She listened to Alice’s lungs and told the ladies, that considering everything her lungs sounded good.
Then after Alice put her t-shirt back on the Doctor ask Alice if she and Dana would go wait for her in her office. When Alice’s Doctor walked into her office she closed her door so she could talk to them in private. She had known Alice for years as a patient, so she wanted to make sure before they left, they had everything the needed. “So Alice, these injuries don’t look like a car accident, do you mind me asking what happen?” Alice explained how she and Dana were harassed after leaving a bar, and one of the men decided to use her body as a punching bag.
As Alice’s Doctor listened to the recap of what happen, she noticed Alice’s companion had yet to say anything. “So Dana, how are you holding up?” Dana replied how she was fine, but she wondered if the Doctor could give Alice something to help her sleep, because she was having nightmares and thrashing around at night. Alice’s Doctor didn’t see any problem with that, but once again she asked Dana how she was doing and if she had any problems sleeping at night.
Dana was starting to see a pattern with some of the questions she was being asked, first by Bette and now by Alice’s Doctor. “I’m fine, and yes I have a little trouble relaxing and sleeping, but I think once Alice is OK that will take care of itself.
