"Look who it is, the fantastic four." Oh boy this is a big one.
"Brace yourselves; he's in suck up mode." I'm almost afraid to know what happened; I can see the anger simmering behind his bright eyed cheerfulness.
"This is a big one guys." Thanks Woody that helped
"Well when you get a call first thing in the morning for four M.E. you know its… going to be big." Jordan you have a gift for understatement.

Next to seeing children killed this is the one of the hardest things to deal with, mass murder, could be a robbery turned random killing, could be a serial killer, hell over the last several years I have seen things I would never have in Wisconsin, but then I would not have gotten to know all these good people. Guess you need to take the good with the bad… good advice for life, write that down. I really have to stop watching Van Wilder.
I can only blame the drugs on the fact that I didn't listen to my instinct better when it told me something was hinky with that FBI agent, and how Pamela got the drop on me, well that last one, I want to blame on the drugs… that sounds so bad.

This was tough for Woody, he was going to stop taking field work but, he has been avoiding it, Lily and I can only push so far. I talked to Captain Frakes, he said that it does seem strange but he has lightened Woody's workload, and Woody has been talking to him. I try to keep as close an eye on him as possible; but he knows I'm doing it to.
I thought it was a little strange that Woody would turn down the drink I could see he needed something to calm him down, and I know he could handle at least a toast, but well I guess he is technically on duty, and he is going to the station.

I would've love to have that glass of Whiskey but I have started taking some experimental drugs, Dr Davis and I had a long talk about it, one of the times, I was able to go without Garrett or Lily tagging along, they go to most of my visits, not that I mind, having them there for support is important, but I know that if Garrett and Lily knew I was taking medicine they would be pushing harder for me to stop taking cases and watch me closer. I have always hating having someone baby sit me. I will need to tell at least Garrett before my next visit which is less then a week away, but I will worry about that later. I was able to convince him that the fact that I was driving was the reason I didn't drink with them.
Jordan, what ever am I going to do with you, I can't protect you like I need to, I'm getting more fatigued, and some mornings I have a hard time moving my legs, its times like that and when I walked in to the dinner, that scare me the most, I'm not really afraid of death, I have faced death, my own and others, even others that were close to me. But I afraid I will not be fast or strong enough to protect Jordan, or anyone else at the Morgue. Anne use to call it super hero complex, that fact that I need to save every one, but I have taken some psychology classes, it's kind of required, and I figured it stems from the fact that every one I have ever cared about has left in some form or another.
