“HEY. If you want to hear the story, pay attention.” I hear Denti say, taking me out of my daze. “Oh shit, Anthony, you never listen — the point is that Colonel Lessly is now making the moves on McClee — ”.
BAAAANNNGGG. BAAAAANNNNGGG.
BUNKERS! BUNKERS! BUNKERS!
1500 HOURS, OR
Our surgeries are out early today after we each did three I&Ds. When Reto walks in for second shift he's got a paper with him. “What patient died in the OR?” he asks. Denti and I look up.
“None.”
No patient has died in the OR. Patients of ours have died at later dates, but up to this time no patient has died in our OR — as far as I'm aware.
“Let me see that.”
We go over to see this.
Denti says, “What are you talking about? This is wrong. What is this, yellow journalism?”
“Probably some mistake.”
“No patients have died in the OR.”
“An American soldier died on the operating table,” Reto is reading.
“That's not true. No patient died, not in the OR, I remember that surgery. There was an American soldier and Iraqi. Now, yes, the patient in question did end up dying, but he died later in the ICW. But the patient was alive, he didn't die during surgery here in the OR…. ”
We have an advanced copy of the article written by the journalists who visited the OR a few months ago. The article is a powder puff piece about our unit and it blatantly lies about a patient dying in the OR — the journalists were in there when we wheeled the patient out alive.
We're all just standing there in silence.
