“Where caring comes first,” Nora offered as the ambulance pulled into its bay. The paramedic never knew if she should grin or groan at such things, and always decided to attempt both at once. “Because we’re all out of money and we’ll do anything for it. Except, you know, actually help anybody.”
She tried to keep things playful, but that same attitude had been spreading from the breakroom for almost a year now: a tight budget and a board of directors making tough calls to survive. The sentiment continued that the patients weren’t surviving because of it.
She yawned; night shift was starting and her day was done. “That retirement party’s tonight, right? I’m gonna sneak in and get some cake. At least someone doesn’t have to keep working here much longer.”
Lenora Bowers didn’t, either. She’d be found tomorrow by two people in three places, part of a trail of gore surrounding the hospital in a gigantic, gruesome circle.
As for what happened in the hospital, well…
