READY AND WILLING

Matthew couldn’t believe his eyes, but as Cassandra Jenkins discussed her past with the class, no doubt remained. This was Cassie. This was his Cassie from Travis, Tennessee. She sounded the same and moved the same, but she was thirty years older. While her words and mannerisms took Matthew back to his time in 1984, there were noticeable differences. This wasn’t the shy, awkward girl he had known just months earlier. She was a woman, she had seen the world, and as such she exuded confidence.

Amanda leaned over to Matthew and whispered, “Is that who I think it is?” Matthew nodded with wide-eyed concern. Cassie described her time growing up in Travis with her twin brother, comparing her time as a child to the advances that had been made over the last thirty years. She explained her love of science and how she had come to work at Genesis.

“I have always been fascinated with the human body and how it fights off infection and disease. Through my years of study, it has become obvious to me that the more we can do to prevent someone from ever having to deal with a disease or infection the better. While there are many scientists, doctors, and chemists working on the perfect mixtures of immunizations for the public, there haven’t been too many that have worked on the application side.”

One of the students in the class raised her hand. “What do you mean the application side?”

Cassie explained that her primary role with Genesis had grown on the application side. “We don’t want to rely on the needle for all immunizations. It needs to be easy on both the personnel applying the immunization and the person receiving it. Wouldn’t it be nice if a baby didn’t have to receive a booster shot? How about a one-size-fits-all application method that is pain-free and more effective over the life of the person receiving it?”

Ms. Landrum interrupted and asked the class to hold their questions until the end of Cassandra’s presentation. “Ms. Jenkins will stick around to answer all of your questions, so please allow her to complete her presentation before interrupting again.”

Cassie spent the next forty minutes talking about her life in all areas of science. She had graduated MIT with her brother. He had focused more of his time on the space program and the exploration of the stars beyond our own galaxy. “He was just obsessed with Earth’s place in the universe. He spent more time studying the stars than I could ever count.”

Cassie continued to push her topic of science and how important it would be to the human race moving forward. “You are the future of this planet. You will be the ones to continue the work that scientists like me have begun, and someday someone else will take over from you. Shoot for the stars and think outside the box, and you will be amazed at what you learn and what you can teach someone else. The future is bright.
