Putting the Pieces Together Who: Dan Hoffman & Jeff Novak & now, with Gil Hatayama! What: Visiting the patient. When: Monday night. Where: Dan's Room, Seattle County Hospital Rating: PG-13? Status: COMPLETE.
He wore the glasses, because they made him look older, more official. The photo ID was clipped to his jacket and he'd combed his hair and shaved, looking as professional as possible. Jeff Novak entered Seattle County Hospital and checked with the desk, to ensure he had the right room. He knew the woman - Lynn, nice smile - from his visits here with clients and doctors. He confirmed where they had placed Dan and headed there at a leisurely pace, not sure if anyone was going to try and stop him or not, but not ready to listen to the word 'no'.
There was a guard outside the room. That they'd bothered to put a guard on a man who was paralyzed roughly from the waist down was bizarre. Jeff flicked his ID badge under the guard's nose - "I'm his physiotherapist" - and ignored the look of disapproval. He pushed the door open, entered the private room and studied the patient for a moment before speaking.
