Two weeks later

THE PAST TWO weeks have flown by in a blur. Mackenzie did amazingly well for a transplant patient. I was able to discharge her today. Knowing she’s finally home and doing so well takes a huge weight off my shoulders as her doctor. I never want my patients to suffer, and when Mack started getting worse, it really affected me. I knew it was a long shot that we’d get a heart for her in time and was shocked when it happened so quickly. Most patients wait for six-plus months for one, and many more end up dying before they ever make it to transplant.

With none of my patients admitted to the hospital right now, I’ve rescheduled the little weekend getaway I’d planned to take Megan on when the heart came through and we had to cancel all our plans. Things have slowly progressed these two weeks. We’ve been having lunch and dinner together most days, sometimes while stuck here in the hospital, sometimes at her place once we’ve both escaped the confines of the hospital. So, to say we’re both looking forward to getting away from here for a little bit is an understatement.

“Ready?” Megan asks as she stops in the doorway of my office.

“Yes,” I tell her as I shut down my computer. “I’ve been ready since about noon.”

“Then let’s go, the road is calling our name,” she says, and I follow her out and down the hall.

“Are you okay with waiting to eat dinner until we get there?” I ask. I finally caved and told her where we were going so she could pack accordingly. We’re staying two nights, so we both needed to plan for that.

“Yep, I’m good. Plus, it isn’t like the drive is that long, right?” she confirms.

“Nope, just about an hour.”

“I’ll be just fine,” she assures me.

“Okay, then let’s hit the road,” I tell her as we make our way outside. I was able to change the rental from before to this weekend. I already have my bag in the car, and all we’ve got to do is stop at her apartment across the street and grab hers.

“You know I would have driven,” she tells me again.

“I know, but I know where we’re going and don’t mind.”

“Yeah, but for you to drive, you have to rent a special car. For me to drive, we can just take my already customized car.”

“Just get in and stop worrying,” I tell her, opening the door and lowering the ramp so she can do just that.

I cross the intersection and pull into her apartment complex, grabbing a spot near the door. “Do you want me to just run in and grab your stuff?” I offer.

“Sure, it’s all by the door, ready to go. I’ve got a small suitcase and the fold up shower chair,” she tells me.

“Okay, I’ll be back in a few minutes,” I tell her. I grab the key from her hands and head in to get her things. I find them just inside the door as she said they were.
