Teegan's POV
Going over to the salad bar, I looked at the options before me as Beverly picked up a yogurt parfait. Hospital food wasn't always the worst, but... we all have our good and bad days.. today was, unfortunately, one of those days, and I felt stuck with a salad and a bowl of fruit for lunch.

She was having trouble breathing, and the attending quickly performed a tracheostomy with his residents after ordering Beverly to help stabilize the woman's head. Afterward, she was put in a neck brace, and eventually, the orthopedic resident helped reset her bones that were out of place.
