She left Cochrane and headed to sickbay. All personnel had to be cleared when boarding a ship. And though Manhattan two more weeks before disembarking Revna was due for a check up anyway and she figured she’d get it done on board rather than the station. She reached into a pocket of her floor length vest and pulled out a chip and walked up to the first free nurse she saw in sickbay. “Hello Ensign. I’m Revna McKenzie the new diplomatic attaché. I need a medical check up, is there a doctor available?”
Revna, Diplomatic Attaché

“Welcome to the Manhattan,” Lavonne Washington said turning to the console and tapping a few buttons. After reading the response she looked up at Revna. “The doctor will be right out. Turning her back to Revna she tapped her earpiece going back to the very non-work-related comm call she had previously been on. “Girl he did not. What you mean he was taking out Bunkie and Pookie at the same time.”

Coming around the desk Jasmine looked at Lavonne and did a double-take. “Bunkie and Pookie the twins next door to his Mamie,” Jasmine asked picking up the PaDD. The drama of the Washington family was well known to any medical staff that had one of the family’s nurses on staff. They took a bit to get used to but once you entered their inner circle, it was better than any holo show around.

“Ummm hmmmm,” Lavonne muted her call and looked at Revna. “That is the walk-in. Revna McKenzie. Come back and I will fill you in later,” she winked at Jasmine before going back to her call.

Looking at the entry, Jasmine directed her attention to McKenzie. “Ms. McKenzie I am Dr. Wynter....welcome on board the Manhattan. How was your trip over here. Uneventful I hope,” she said as she gestured towards a biobed.

Revna grinned at the antics of the woman at the desk. Life continues, as they say. “Mrs. actually,” Revna grinned, gods that felt good. “It was uneventful but long. I was happy to arrive at the station.” The trip over had been totally boring, her arrival on the other hand. Revna seemed to have a permanent smile on her face and was light hearted most of the time. She sat on the bio bed and scooted back, taking a deep breath. Such an amazing feeling. “Thank you for seeing me. I was due for my bi weekly check up and since I’m being stationed aboard, I’d come here instead of the station.”

“No problem. The doors are always open,” she returned the greeting with a smile. Jasmine picked up the tricorder and scanned the woman. Seeing the results she went back to the PaDD and looked at an entry before looking back at Revna. “How did the surgery go? Any issues?” The woman’s vitals looked amazing and the notes from the surgery did not seem to indicate any major issue but that did not mean the patient’s experience was the same as a reading on a scanner.

Revna smiled, “I can breathe doctor. So I would say it went wonderfully.” Revna knew the file inside and out. “The surgery went well, though much longer than expected simply due to the amount of damage and not any complications. The first 2 weeks afterwards I was showing signs of possible rejection but nothing ever came of it. For mine and the surgeon’s peace of mind I come in every two weeks to make sure I’m not rejecting my new lungs. Physically I feel good, I’m continuing my PT exercises for the muscle damage and the breathing exercises to strengthen and train the lungs. Emotionally, well that’s why I’m still in counseling, and I expect to continue for quite some time.”

“I am thrilled the surgery went so well,” Jasmine said. “It’s funny how the galaxy works thought,” she let out a laugh. “Lauren contacted me about your case a few months ago and then said You were going back to the Centurión for the surgery. How crazy would it have been to have had you for a patient before I had you as a patient,” she signed off several pages of the PaDD as she talked.

Revna took a very very slow steading breath. Did she now? Why did that not surprise her. Lauren had not treated her but once but doctor patient confidentiality still applied. But of course the great Lauren did whatever she wanted. Would Revna had let her ask for a consultation, yes she would have, but it was BAD ethics that Lauren did it behind her back. Just one more nail in the door. But Revna’s expression didn’t give any of that away. “I suppose now is a good time to make a very heartfelt request, Dr Wynter, that my medical files not be discussed with anyone NOT on my approved list. Even those that may have treated me previously. I have a very specific reason for this and perhaps we could discuss it over coffee one day.”

“Crazy enough you are in the best place in case of organ rejection. I have a paper coming out next month and a symposium after that about what I learned on our last mission about organ cloning from the Mundai Colony.” Years of being a doctor let her hold a neural expression. No one cared about how she had gotten the medical experience and she was more than happy not to share the details. The only bright side was that maybe she and Max had made a difference on Mundai. If they hadn’t, she had Frieder to lean on. whoever saves one life saves the world entire, ran silently in her head. The quote gave her peace and that was all one could ever hope for.

“That actually sounds fascinating. I worked on a hospital ship for many many years, assisting as a medic and even a nurse when needed. The stories to finding a ‘cure’ are both hopeful and tearful. Whichever your story is, thank you for dedication doctor, from someone who has first hand experience being the patient.” The sentiment was genuine. There wasn’t a sarcastic bone in Revna, if she didn’t mean it she didn’t say it. “It is very reassuring to know you have expertise in this. It makes being so far from home, easier.”

“So I see you are a newlywed,” Jasmine let the topic naturally flow into something positive. “Congrats. How is married life? By the smile you had earlier mentioning Mrs. I am assuming you are still in the honeymoon phase? That is a great phase,” she smiled genuinely happy for the woman before her. Jasmine was a sucker for love and strangely fascinated by how people found it; however, no one understood Mintaran marriage so it was a fair confusion by all.

Revna chuckled softly. “I’m not sure you can call it honey moon stage. I think we’re still in the wedding ceremony stage.” At the look she knew she’d get, “2 days ago. We got married 2 days ago. And it’s wonderful. Are you married, Doctor?” Revna had a very close friend who was Mintaran, but she had no way of knowing that Dr Wynter was Mintaran and so wouldn’t think to make mention. Ethan Nash had been a good friend when she needed one, and she hoped that he found what he needed and wanted in life. Her heart went out to him, he was a good man and deserved better than the cards he’d been dealt. But such was the trend on Atlantis. She missed most of them, but was certain they would be okay. She missed her sister and D’Vash most of all. And soon she’d be missing Mike most of all. She pushed it aside and turned a smiling face back to the doctor. “So, how am I doctor?”
