aspirin, what the heck

Personal Log

Desdemona Levy, Medical Officer

 

 

Desdemona sat in sickbay trying to finish some paperwork, when Dr Shoeny got word that LtCdr Robair was on his way down. She and the cmo wondered why he was coming down, but as they say ours is not to question why. She turned back to her work but was not really focused on it. She was a little bit curious as to what was going on with the mission, so far no one had even noticed that sickbay was there. She did not mind all that much, as any doctor would say a slow day means a good day. Once again she tried to turn back to her work but had little success. when Robair walked in she knew she would not be getting it done any time soon. She listened to the conversation between Shoeny and Robair, trying not to look to interested, when she heard Robair say he needed medical supplies and referenced aspirin. She quickly put her hand over her mouth so as not to laugh. She knew better than to do anything foolish in front of a superior officer. "But aspirin" she thought. "Who uses aspirin" Obviously he did not have much medical training. She looked at her computer screen and quickly pulled up all the information on the out of date drug known as aspirin. It had only been used for about 200 years before better medicines were created. But still she thought is was rather odd that he had referenced it. She assumed they would be sending medical supplies with anyone who was going to the surface, but then she thought to herself would anyone really know what to do if medical attention was needed. Would they send a doctor? She didn't know the answer. But if someone from medical was going to go with the away team, they better make sure to bring a lot of aspirin because you never know what's going to happen.
