As the day's came and went chichire sat in biobed sleeping. After the two and half day is of naturally rest she felt ready to move around a bit, so she climbed out of the biobed and head for the replicater but before she could order anything, Lt Brown walked into the room.
Leanne has always the routine of checking each patient every thirty minutes or so, if the nurses don't report the vitals. She decided it was time to check on the Corporal. Just as she walked into the area, she found the woman up and about the room. "I suggest you get back to your bed, Corporal. Tell me, how do you feel?"
"Well hello, doc. I feel fine. I just could not lay around any more, can you tell how much longer I have to stay here? I don't care if I can't go back to duty. I just want to be able to walk around or even play the piano for that matter, but that your call I guess", chi said.
Doctor Bowen guided her back to her biobed. "Give it another 36 hours...you had major surgery and you should be sore by now." She picked up a tricorder to do some scans on her.
"Well I have been sore for the last couple day's but to day I fell good no pain but I can wait another day and a half if that's you it just good to hear I'll be out of here soon ."
"Okay, let's give it 24 since you have less soreness. But, you need to rest and allow your body to heal. You are allowed to have visitors for twenty minutes at a time. Do you have any questions or concerns?" Leanne closed the tricorder, noting that her vitals were within normal.
"No I'm good, but how is every thing going for you? Oh, I'm sorry you must be busy. I'll just go back to sleep."
"Everything is good here for now...I'm not that busy." Doctor Bowen gently patted her shoulder, "Do get some rest and I will check on you again later. Okay?"
"Thanks' doc I appreciate it" chi said as she layed back down to go to sleep. "My you enjoy the rest of your day."
"Ok...get some rest," she said as she picked up the closed tricorder and walked to her office to get some paperwork done.
