Lacy Eye (2015)
“As it was, Francine startled me when I arrived on Monday and she said, “Hanna, you okay? I heard,” and at first I thought she meant she’d heard about Dawn’s phone call, but then I realized she was talking about Rud Petty’s appeal.
When I was in the rehab hospital, I never thought about going back to work when I recovered. But after I’d been home for two weeks, and realized how shaky I felt with all that unstructured time, I called Bob Toussaint, who’d been my boss for almost fifteen years. ...He understood that I didn’t need the salary as much as I needed the work itself again. Joe had seen to it, with his usual conscientiousness, that I’d be taken care of if something happened to him, even with the economy as uncertain as it was; I would still be okay, according to Joe’s friend and colleague Tom Whitty, who’d taken over the accounts.What I craved was the contact with patients and the camaraderie our office had always shared. I didn’t want to put Bob in the awkward position of having to turn me down about actual nursing, because there was no question that the skills I’d once prided myself on had been diminished by my injuries in the attack.MoreLess
