Chapter 7- School

I walked over to the man we had made our leader. By the way he barked out orders, I figured he was the guy to talk to about my status in the group. He was hudled around a few of our injured survivors. His wife and son were side by side on the ground and a girl named Jerri was sitting up, awake, eating her breakfast slowly.
I took a deep breath and smiled at Heath when he looked up at me at the front of the medical area.
"Oh hello" he smiled back at me as he entered the room.
"I was just checking up on everyone and I needed to ask a favor" I replied, pushing my thick hair out of my face.
"Well, what do you need?" he asked in a friendly tone.
"I want to help with the injured people. Before we crashed, I had just gotten out of medschool. And it would be a great way to practice before we are rescued. And I also think we should make a more controlled environment for the patients" I said, talking fast, because I was nervous.
"I guess you could help, I've been in the medical field for awhile so I guess I could help you in learning the basics. Sure, you can help me." he said motioning for me to sit down beside him and help with his son.
"Thanks so have you figured out what was wrong with them?" I asked, feeling his forehead for fever.
"Oh that is right, you're the one who brought them here. Thanks for that, it means alot to me" he said, smiling again. I nodded and stood up slowly.
"I'll go get some water and supplies then we'll start working." I said as I left the tent.
