1House walked into Kayla's room and slid the door shut.
"You have surgery in an hour," He informed her. She sat up straighter in her bed.
"I- uh, what? You got permission from my Aunt?" She asked, surprised. She didn't think her Aunt would give in that easily, she thought she would have delayed, just to cause her niece misery.
"Yeah. You seem surprised." Stated House.
"No, no! It's just, I know nothing about this surgery and-" House cut her off.
"That's what I'm here for,' Said House, "So, here's the basics, with this surgery you have an excellent chance of surviving, don't worry, about 99. The surgeon will go in and take out the dead muscle, depending on how much the surgery could take from two to four hours. The recovery, however, is a bit difficult. You will need to stay in the hospital for about a month for in- patient physical therapy, and then will spend another month as an out-patient, getting regular checkups on how well your leg is healing and also to see how well you are doing with your, uh...cane use." House completed his description hesitantly.
"So, I'll need a cane?" House nodded.
"Okay...I'm ready." Said Kayla mustering up a confident look.
" Good, because here come the nurses to wheel you in." House informed her. With one last fearful look to House, Kayla's bed was wheeled out of her room, and down to the OR. House sighed, and said to the now empty room, "good luck, kid."
