Vital Signs (2003)
“Margaret spat out the words as if they were rotten. “Fortunately I checked and opened the valve again, but I’m sure you’re aware of how serious this is, Hailey.”
Of course she was. Her worst nightmare was causing harm to any patient. Her heart gave a sickening thud and slammed against her ribs.
“Is…is he okay?”
Margaret responded with her own question. “How could a thing like this have happened? Tell me that.”
Miserable, guilty, worried sick, Hailey shook her head, trying to figure it out. “It ...must have been when the clown pretended to pull the rabbit from Joshua’s IV,” she finally said, and then she had the sense to glance at her watch. “That was only about a half hour ago, Margaret.” A half hour without antibiotics wasn’t a life-threatening situation in Joshua’s case. For heaven’s sake, what was she thinking?
That you’ve made what might have been a serious mistake.
An awful sense of foreboding washed over Hailey. Margaret had been waiting a long time for her to make such a mistake.MoreLess
