Day 6 Morning
Well The morning started out okay. That did not last. First you noticed that the water from the taps was coming much slower and under less pressure. Then while you were exploring the pile yard disaster struck back at the warehouse.
Improvements:
Opening the Ikea crates and setting up furniture went well. You found chairs, tables, pillows, blankets and cupboards as well as a large number of futons. For once they seem to have all the pieces so once they are set up things will be much more comfortable here. The first things you set up are cupboards and futons in the new medical center so to reduce the suffering of your injured.(+2 morale)
With the new furniture set up Diana is able to focus on sorting the little medical supplies you have and working to clean the area to prevent infections. Considering that you now have a burn victim this is a real risk to his well being. This was going well until she had to with the second set of serious injuries in two days.
General actions:
Once again checking the barricades you find nothing wrong with them. You also realize that you are now familiar enough with them that the job is no longer time consuming.(Checking Barricades is now an automatic action(no pick cost))
You decide to led the groups working in the pile yard while those who stay behind worked on Decoding the manifests and building some fish traps. Cedric manages to find a woodworking crate before you even leave. You take this as a good sign.
In the pile yard you divide up between listing what is in all the piles/open containers and trying to secure the gate. With your blacksmith out of action you feel that you must try to secure the gate some more. In the end the teams working on this has to settle on piling junk up against the gate until Vincent is well enough to talk us trough making a better way of locking or barring it.
You manage to get a look at at least half the piles. They contain:
2 piles sod
1 pile sand
Wreckage from a build down house
1 pile large gravel
1 pile small gravel
1 pile broken cement
1 pile scrap wood/metal
Heading back to the warehouse you are meet by a scene of chaos. Bricks and cinder blocks have been thrown out of their container and are piled on the ground and everyone is now running around the new medical where there is the sound of screaming. Reaching the medical area you are meet with the smell of blood and the sight of one of the new people being held down as Diana finishes sewing closed a huge gash along almost the whole length of his rib cage. When you get closer you see that two other people were setting and splinting a broken left arm.(-3 morale)(-1 first aid kit)
Once Diana sets the needle down you learn what happened. It turns out that when asked to get something to weight down the trap your new idiot as she calls him decided to pull a piece of broken cinderblock from the bottom of a stack somehow bringing it and the stack of bricks next to it down on himself.
Diana tells you that she thinks he might have more injuries that were not obvious. To be sure she will need help for the rest of the day(This will also complete the medical area set up) She also tells you that unless you want to risk disease that the blood must be cleaned up now. (lose afternoon actions Medical tests and Morale tests on clean up instead)
Do you:
[ ]Curse under you breath and give the orders.
[ ]Curse loudly and give the orders.
[ ]Just nod and give the orders.
[ ]Give her your support and give the orders.
Will you work at:
[ ]helping Diana with you newly christened idiot.
[ ]Cleaning the blood.
[ ]Getting what Diana tells you.
(Medical test determines if he survives and how long his recovery is as well as lost action(will he need any extra people caring for him))

Thanks. I was just looking at it and realised that I've completely forgotten to put in any roads, though.
Here's another one, more ... in character. Drawn "on the back of a cargo manifest". With doodles!
Hah! No, it's pretty much what I would doodle if I was discussing a trip to the Zoo in their place.
(upper left that is, the lower right doodle is Lilli or someone thinking about making stairs and the lower left is someone with carpentry skills explaining how to make a simple pot stand and the lower centre is brainstorming)We also got one 98 and one of the d-sixes turned up a six and one a five, so its not all bad. Positive thinking. Although, yeah, if anyone have an omake they want to do, now might be the time.

Day 6 Afternoon Part 1 Medic
The first thing Diana tells you to do is to get a big pot of water boiling as she will need it. While you fill the pot you notice that the water pressure has returned.
Once you have the water on the fire she sends you to cut long strips of fabric and to find some fluffy fabric for padding. This goes very well not does the fabric cut into strips easily but you finds sealed packages of gauze. It is not medical gauze but it will do nicely Diana tells you.
Between bringing back the bandages and retrieving the boiled water you notice that the blood is already attracting flies. The group cleaning the blood is having trouble getting it out. They are making progress but it is slower than you hoped.
While you are getting her supplies she starts to examine him again. By the time you return she have determined that the right side of his rib cage is not moving like it should when he breaths but his chest is so covered with blood she is having difficulty telling why. She has you help her wash off the blood with the boiled water. As you clean off the blood you notice one of his ribs almost looks like it is folded on itself. Bringing this to Diana's attention she start to swear. It's a break and a messy one at that. If she does not operate his rib is going to puncture hid lung killing him. With her limited knowledge of operations and limited tools she might be able to save his life but thing look grim. She tells the two other people helping her to hold him still until she tells them otherwise.
With the amount of internal bleeding and swelling, the first thing she does is try to drain any blood out of the chest cavity to prevent his lungs from collapsing. She manages a clean cut that drains well unfortunately it quickly becomes that the bleeding has been very heavy and he has already lost a dangerous amount of blood. With this in mind she quickly begins to remove the bone splinters that are floating around loose. There are a fair number of splinters and she is only mostly sure she has gotten them all but with his blood lose she has to move on to setting the rib. That at least goes well even if you almost lost you breakfast at the sounds it made.
When she begins to sew the cut closed she runs into a problem. While she has been able to the internal bleeding he wont stop bleeding externally. Looking at you with a blank look in her eyes she orders you to heat a flat piece off metal till it is red hot while she tries to control the bleeding. It is only when you pass it off to her do you realize what she needed it for. She presses the burning metal to the still bleeding wound. The warehouse quickly fills with the sound of his screaming until you give him a roll to fabric to bite down on. When she remove the metal the wound bleeds no more.
Diana immediately starts to wash the wound and surrounding area. Luckily you sill have enough of the boiled water for cleansing it. When you start to bind the wound using the gauze and strips of fabric you see just how bad he is. His face is paper white, his eyes are sunken, his lips are white and look like they are going to crack and he is shivering despite the summer heat. He is in shock a very bad case of it.
Do you:
[ ]Raise his legs.
[ ]Raise his head.
[ ]Leave him flat.
Once you do that:
[ ]Leave him uncovered and pat him with a cool wet clothe.
[ ]Leave him uncovered.
[ ]Pile blankets on him.
[ ]Pile blankets on him and place a heated brick under them.
He has lost a lot of blood. Do you:
[ ]Do not let him drink.
[ ]Give in cold water to drink.
[ ]Give him cool tea to drink.
[ ]Give in hot water to drink.
[ ]Give him hot tea to drink.
He is in bad shape and you have so fish left over. You can make a broth out of the fish for him. Do you
[ ]Yes (lose 0.5 days food)
[ ]No (no food lost)

Do you:
[X]Raise his legs.
-[X] Also elevate the injured side of his chest if possible.
Once you do that:
[X]Pile blankets on him and place a heated brick under them.
Yeah, shock, probably from blood loss. So long as his wounds are bandaged, he should be kept covered and warm.
He has lost a lot of blood. Do you:
Theoretically, you shouldn't give people in shock anything to drink in case they choke, but I think we might have to risk it since we can't give him intravenous fluids. Undecided. If we do give anything, broth would probably be best.
