The rhythmic sound of the heart monitor filled the otherwise quiet room with sound. Hypnotic in nature, the sound gave an overall sense of the current state of the man the monitor was connected too. The figure lay in the bed, his upper torso lifted in a slight angle as the back of the bed brought him into a near sitting position. His legs remained beneath the sky-clue bed sheets, however, straps belonging to Velcro restraints emerged on both sides of the bed and remained firmly attached to the metal frames. Beneath the straps, the ankles were kept in a restrained position, refusing to allow for much movement. The man wore a typical hospital gown, the bed sheet itself folded neatly across his waist. Looking at the mans arm’s, they in similar fashion to the ankles, were restrained, though the restraints were situated at the elbows. His wrists were securely wrapped in thick white gauze. It was not a sight that many people would have expected to see in a hospital. They were facilities of hope, of life. They were meant to help people, not keep them locked down. In this instance, by securing the man, they were helping him.
A hand knocked on the hospital room door, which drew the patients attention. “Mister Casimir.” A voice broke as the door opened, “It’s time for your check up but I also bring an update with me.” The figure that entered was a Doctor, and a right pain in the arse if anyone asked. He was in his sixties, his voice deep and commanding, yet subtly holding the same charm a mall-santa would when dealing with children. Though his face was aged, his appearance increasingly gastly, his eyes held the stare of a man with a life time of intelligence and a man whom knew exactly how to use said intelligence. When it came to medical issues, this Doctor was one that most others avoided having debates with.
Goetschl turned his head back to the window in which he spent the majority of his recent days staring out of.
“Not in much of a mood to talk then?” Doctor Reichman asked, “You know, I am here to listen if you want to discuss what happened.” Though it was a statement, it came off with the allure of a question. Still Goetschl made no acknowledgement to the man, even as he approached the bed to take a look at the various monitors and i.v. drip that was hooked up to the Jedi Padawan. “Everything looks stable, though I need to have a nurse replace your antibiotic.” He explained as he pressed the small iv bag, and writing a bit of a chicken scratch note on it with a black sharpie marker. “I’m going to be looking at your wrists.”
Even though Goetschl was restrained, suicidal patients were treated with absolute caution. Though Casimir had not lashed out at anyone in anyway since arriving at the hospital, he still needed to be treated just like everyone else. Quietly the doctor began to remove the bandages, rolling the guaze quietly. “I thought I should give you a heads up. You have a visitor.”
It was that statement that caught Goetschl’s attention and forced the Jedi Padawan to finally turn face towards the physician.
“A Jedi. You and your family seem to be in a bit of a rift. Instead of inconveniencing you, the hospital contacted the last person you did on your datapad.” Goetschl immediately knew whom was called. “The Jedi Temple of Alderaan. Quite interesting. Almost immediately after leaving a message with a Jedi there, we got confirmation that one would be dispatched to Dantella IV.”
Casimir’s eyes narrowed in irritation before returning to the window. What Doctor Reichman did not explain was that the hospital planned to release the young man into Jedi care. The Jedi could be the ones to reveal that to him; Reichman was not about to irritate his patient more than he already had. Before finishing the unrolling of the wound on Goetschl’s wrist, the nurses station buzzed through the wall-monitor, “Message for Doctor Reichman. Your guest as arrived. Again, message for Doctor Reichman. Your guest has arrived.” Immediately the Doctor rerolled the wound. Typically he would have finished this examination but it was most apparent that this guest needed to be addressed. “I’ll be back in a few.”
Quietly the Doctor made his way from the room, quietly closing the door and adjusting the sign which read SUICIDE RISK – CAUTION NEEDED before making his way down the hall and towards the Nurses station. As soon as he turned the corner, his eyes fell to the first immediate Nurse whom handed him Casimir Goetschl’s medical file before falling to a woman whom stood patiently waiting to be addressed. “Thank you for coming on such short notice. My name if Doctor Alfred Reichman, and I do apologize, the Order stated someone would be coming but did not say who. May I ask whom you are?”
