Injuries: blunt force trauma to the head/gunshot wound to the uppper left thigh/unknown drug in system
The following is a description of the events that happened on the morning of March 14, 2009.
Today, at 7:50 a.m., I recieved a call from several police officers about an officer that was in need of medical attention at the bar. According to the report the Deputy Chief gave me, the officer in need of attention's name was Kayla Fox, a lieutenant at our local police department. Earlier that day she was asked to come inside the bar by a currently unidentified man. Once she entered the bar the man pulled a gun and disarmed the officer. Luckily she called for backup suspecting something was a little uncanny before she entered the bar. The Deputy Chief was first on the scene, and negotiated with the criminal. The criminal had no intent to make compromises and ended up being killed in a fire fight. Before that happened however Officer Fox drank a glass of water the criminal offered her, inside this glass was however a foreign substance that is still undetermined. (*note* most likely inserted in the form of a pill). The officer was then fell unconcious and a head injury implies she fell without any brace and recieved blunt trauma to the head. I arrived on the scene to see the majority of the officers not in sight due to an important robbery call. I started the process of cessation of the gunshot wound she recieved by applying pressure with a pad of gauze to the wound. In order to perform dialysis to detox her system I had to take her to the hospital.
Upon arrival, aproximately 8:30 a.m., to the hospital, I discovered we were severely understaffed ((surprise!)) I had to perform all the procedures this time solo. I hooked her up to an IV line and an EKG machine. Still unresponsive I performed a quick PERL test by testing the dialation of the eyes. The response was not good but could have been worse, when a pocket light was shined in the patients eyes only the right eye dialated while the left eye dialated only very slightly. This indicated a slight increase of intracranial pressure in the patients right cerebral hemisphere. I concluded this minor case of ICP could be fixed with the elevation of the patients head. The patient was given an anticonvulsant, Metharbital, to help with the elevated ICP. I hooked the patient to the Hemodialysis machine to detox her system. The procedure would take approximately 2 hours. I then removed the bullet from the upper thigh and sterilized the wound. The wound took 9 stitches to patch back up.
An uncanny occurance occured then happened at approximately 10:00 a.m., the patient was stabilized but then fell into cardiac arrest. I retrieved the defibrillator and began stardard procedure on the patient. After the third try, the patient's BPM came back up to 70.
At 10:30 a.m. the patient was still unresponsive, I performed a comatose test to measure her degree of conciousness. On the Glasgow Coma Scale, the officer scored a 5/15, a 1 on the eye response, 2 on the visual response, and 2 on the motor response tests. I informed a Captain Ivan Drago of the occurance. He informed me she had a spouse that happened to be the commissioner of the police force. I have yet to be able to contact him, and will attempt again after this entry.

((I was debating whether I should make an exciting 1st person account of this event, or a more boring retrospective account from my point of view. I decided on this because I am going to try to make Medical Journal entries from now on for characters that have been severely injured in an RP, so the server is aware of the change))
