She had to go. She had to go. She had to go.

Connor needed her.

Fighting not to just flat-out leave her patient and run, she carefully worked on the throat blockage. It would heal, but for now the throat was too swollen for air to pass through. She wrapped the man’s neck in a clean bandage with the small tube still in place and said to his anxious brother and father, “Help me move him, get him settled in a bed.”

How many beds did they have available? How many would be needed for the stagecoach crash? Sending this man home might be for the best, but she had to talk to Dr. Radcliffe first. And Connor needed her. She’d just sent him off with no idea what he’d be facing.

She had to go. She had to go.

“This way.” She clamped her mouth shut and tried not to rush things. “Don’t jostle him or the tube could dislodge.”

She had to go!

Finally, the man was settled and resting again. His family promised to stay at his side and keep watch.

Maggie hurried into the waiting room on her way to the door and to Connor. When she opened it, four men—carrying a fifth man who was lying on a wooden door—almost knocked her down.

“He’s from the stagecoach wreck, miss. He’s unconscious.”

Fighting the urge to scream, she turned back. “Follow me. Now lift him off that door and set him on the table real easy.”

One of the men said, “We’ve got to go back, miss. There are more comin’.”

Despite her wanting to go help Connor, Maggie knew she needed to stay where she was. So she turned to the unconscious man and went to work, praying at the same time.
