Sick, scared old lady, with a little piggy that had gone rotten and was starting to smell bad.
When you are septic, blood rife with infection, temp runnin' more than somewhat hot, you can get pretty delirious. She had limped into the clinic, really did not want to lose a toe that was already gone. Things went pretty fast from the moment we see something like that. We are wheeling her back, she tells us to stop, she does not want to have surgery.
"God will fix my foot," she says.
Darren Pepper, the senior resident, tells her,
"No ma'am, He made us doctors so we could fix it."
She kind of nods, goes back, gets the surgery and did fine.
Yes, I know Dr Pepper.
