The Room

The Room

â€œDr.Grasso,â€ came the shout. I hate shouting across the room.

â€œDr.Grasso,â€ this time louder.

Then finally a blood curdling shout â€œI need you in eight now!!â€

It wasnâ€™t like I was far away mind you. Hell, the whole ER was little more than the size of the produce section at Quick Check, but when Kathy A yelled it was going to be bad. Sure enough as I came around the curtain, there was Kathy and an ER tech cutting away the last of a middle aged guyâ€™s shirt, tie and underwear in one motion. I didnâ€™t need the cardiac monitor which hadnâ€™t been connected, to know he was in trouble. He had â€œthe look.â€ A kind of blue black hue that was the preferred color of souls on their way to the pearly gates.

â€œHistory Kathy?â€ I said as I grabbed electrodes to attach to his chest.

â€œNo history,â€ she said, â€œI didnâ€™t get that far. He got to the front desk, said the magic words â€˜chest painâ€™ and collapsed on the stretcher when security brought him in.â€

Thus begins a look inside the workings of a suburban Emergency Room. From high drama life and death to mundane minor health complaints,the book will give the reader a real look at the Emergency Medicine profession.The stories are woven around a fictionalized romance in order to prevent the book from being a continuous series of "war stories."
