She'd want to check your range of motion before discharging you, or even before giving you a firm day that you can go - for that matter." He didn't want to inform Dean of any final decisions, as it wasn't going to be up to him as he was still in training.
"Yeah," Terry said, the simple answer to a problem that baffled everyone. "That's kept us really busy lately, but hopefully this would be it in terms of the creatures--whatever they may be." He was glad that he hadn't encountered any of them as he had been busy at work the whole time.
"I'm alright," he replied with a grin at Dean's attempt at humour. "I've just had a few long shifts that seemed to meld into one another. I just need to get home and clean up, have a nap and a good dinner, and then I'd look good as new. And today I expect would be that day." He didn't mention the dreams though as he felt that it was puzzling and troublesome, and didn't want to bother any patient (friend or not) with his own problems.
