Chapter 1
Sam was putting her stuff into her locker, before she went to get on with her job. But just as she shut her locker, someone wrapped their arms round her waist. She knew who it was. It was Tom. But she had still jumped a bit.
"hello gorgeous" Tom whispered, in Sam's ear.
"hello handsome" Sam said.
just them tom started to kiss Sam's neck, several times. Then sam turned around in toms arms and they kissed, gracefully. Until Sam pulled back to catch her breath, just as Zoe walked in.
"erm I know that you two are in love and all but you do have a job to be getting on with" Zoe told them, not harshful.
"okay then" sam told her and gave Tom a kiss, then went to get on with her job.
She headed toward reception and saw Jeff and Dixie bring a young girl in, through the main doors, heading to resus. So Sam followed them through being that she was the only Doctor around.
"This is Megan, fell over at school outside. Hit her head and has laceration to her hands and knee. Not KO'd. GCS is 15, BP is 120 systolic, her pulse is 100, SATs are 97 and I have given her 150 of saline." Dixie told me, while waking to a bed that was empty. And everyone grabbed part of the spinal board ready to transfer her over.
"OK, let's get her over on three. One, two, three" sam said, and on three we lifted the spinal board and moved it over to the bed.
"OK, has she been given any pain relief for her head?" Sam asked, while Tess connected Megan up to the monitor.
"I have given her some paracetamol." Dixie said, then left wheeling the bed from the ambulance back. And Jeff followed her.
Sam went over to Megan and pulled out her penlight torch and shone it in Megan's eyes. Then put the torch back into her pocket. And faced Megan.
"Ok Megan, my name is Dr Nicholls but you can call me sam, now can you tell me your full name?" Sam asked.
"My name is Megan Nicholls just like yours." Megan told her.
Sam knew that the are lots of people with the same last name that are not related though.
"Okay Megan can you tell me how old you are?" Sam asked.
"I'm 4 years old" she said, but sam let out a slight laugh when Megan put her 5 fingers.
Then Sam turned to Tess and asked her to book a CT scan just to be on the safe side because Megan had hit her head.
