I HEAR THE BEEPING, slow and steady. Matching the throbbing pain I
feel behind my eyes, and through the top of my head.
Why does my head hurt so much?
Where is that steady hum and high pitched whistle coming from?
Why is that beeping noise so relentless?
I don’t remember having an alarm clock set with such an awful sound. I
always use a slow and steadily increasing relaxation sound like waves
crashing alternating with the sound of water flowing over pebbles.
My eyelids are so heavy that I can’t even open them. They feel as though
I’ve tied little lead weights to each one of my eyelashes, and they’re
holding them closed so tightly I can’t budge them.
“Miss?”
I hear a voice that is so far away and echoing, yet reverberating around
inside my head like someone was yelling the word directly into my ear.
The groaning that resulted, I know came from me because I could feel the
vibration of my vocal cords. I could feel the breath leave my lungs to create
the noise, but I didn’t feel the need to take in a breath to replace it. So
strange.
“Miss? Can you hear me?”
The same calm voice in a near whispering softness, was clearly speaking to
me now, this I could tell.
“Doctor, she’s beginning to come around. Would you like me to prepare
another sedation shot for her drip? Or do you think she’s stable enough?”
“How are her vitals? Any changes?”
“No changes Doctor. Same as they were yesterday, and the day before.”
They speak as if I am not even in the room.
Again, I try to open my eyes, and manage a flutter to one eye, and the other
still seems glued shut almost. So I try to move something else, maybe I
haven’t any control.
Should I be worried?
“I think you can have the shot ready nurse, in case her vitals tank when she
regains consciousness. She may not have a grasp on what’s happened fully,
nor do we know how she will even respond to the news. I know you weren’t
here for the last few days, so you don’t know about this patient. Normally
we keep patients who have had this much trauma in the medically induced
coma for far longer, but she seems to have recovered in record time from all
of her sustained injuries.
Her metabolization of the meds we use is
astonishing. She should be dead with the amount of drugs we’ve used just
to sedate her even in this short amount of time. I swear, if I wasn’t here
working the ER shift three nights ago when she was brought in on that
flight for life, I wouldn’t believe this is the same woman.”
“I had a feeling you would want the shot prepared, doctor. I have it ready
here. I also have a simple pain medication ready for her IV if she does
respond well, but needs to have her pain managed.”
