Duty Log Of Dr. Victor Images (Assistant Medical Officer: Ensign)

 

I am currently attempting to reach Lieutenant (Junior Grade) Quark'’s location. There is some sort of medical emergency but I have not been told the details of what exactly the crisis is. Quark and Sorehl to my knowledge are trying to jumpstart the station. To get to them I will have to climb down a shaft and find my way through several Jefferies tubes since the turbo-lifts are not yet working. It’s getting quite chilly as I’m getting deeper into the station meaning that life support must not be fully functional either. The lights however do appear to be up although I guarantee I saw sparks coming from them in the control tower.

  On another note I have not got a reply from Captain Sorehl since I reported back to him about our current number of EVA suits in storage. I suspect 'he' might be the person I will have to assist. I am quite concerned; it would be an immense loss if something happened to a high-ranking officer like Captain Sorehl. Although philosophically thinking about it, all life is supposedly equal according to most scholars and therefore it would logically be just as much a tragedy if a lowly ensign was the victim. Okay that’s enough strange talk for one day; I’m starting to sound like a Vulcan.

 Though I would like to be as thorough as possible in making sure my patient is in good physical shape I think it is imperative that once I've assisted the person and secured their safety I must get back to my duties in sickbay as soon as possible. With a medical station in less then proper order we will be at a severe disadvantage if trouble starts again and presently I consider our sickbay to be an utter pigsty. I suppose I could leave it to the nurses but I’m not sure I trust them in getting it shipshape after what happened to our medical supplies on the Pandora's Box. I realise that I sound a lot like I dislike fieldwork but let me just state for the record that actually it’s quite the opposite. I love doing this. Being out there giving proper medical help to those in need feels so invigorating even if it’s just curing a minor malady. It’s like I’m doing what I've always wanted to do ever since I left the Hispaniola.
