It was Sunday afternoon, when Dr.Soborski was called by desk operator for urgent intervention. Ambulance was on its way with a patient badly injured after suicide attempt. 40-45 year old, Caucasian male, half dead following self-immolation act. When rescue team arrived at the scene on call, the patient was not responding. Life support measures were taken on his way to hospital. Soborski horrified by severety of burn wounds of incoming patient, knew that the inception of death was only matter of hours. So following proper sedative intervention, he ordered to make a background check, find and contact his family by half burnt ID card of the patient.
Soborski made sure nurses apply proper anti-biotic ointment and cover him with non-stick bandage and ordered to give him 0.5 ml of ibuprofen injection for killing the acute pain. Patient yet remained in the ED department
We have contacted his wife…Man she was totally shocked to hear this heartbreaking news. She said she’ll be here in 15 minutes tops.- reported medical assistant – Andrej Jumikis – 27 years old blond male, with narrow chin and long girlish hairstyle to cover his gigantic ears that could have served an object of his derision when he was kid .
OK. –Soborski returned his his morning newspaper.
But guess what?- asked Jumikis.
What ? –Soborski was in no mood for this kiddish “guess what” things and cursed his destiny for making him be on the same board with this insolent and immoral man who doesn’t give a shit for medical hierarchy within institution they worked together.
Jumikis informed Dr.Soborski that according to victims ID card he had recently applyed for organ donation program and signed a consent to donate his brain for dementia and Alzheimer researches upon his death.
-Call “salvage team” get prepaired for surgery... Better he kiks the bucket before his wife arrives so we can start the operation. Otherwise I’m sure she’ll no way let us pull out husband’s brain whether he had written consent or not.
