5. Anyone but her!
Jack
*gently places Sam's injured body onto his make-shift bed in his make-shift cave shelter*
Jack
*locates his only cup looking thing and adapts the top part slightly, so it makes a spout for easier drinking*
Jack
*pours tiny mouthfuls (one at a time) of water into Sam's mouth*
I don't know how long she has been without food or water.
But I'll start with water because the fresh water spring is closer than the food sources I have found so it's easier to replace quickly...
And water is also more important than food in a healthy body.
Jack
*finds some different food sources (berries, fruit, bananas, avocados, garlic etc.) and grinds or mashes them up*
Jack
*finds something like a homemade spoon to ladle different foods into Sam's mouth*
Food was also on the list of things she's crying for in her sleep.
So I'll feed her next...
Jack
Water and Food will need to be done in small doses about 8-10 times a day until she wakes and can regulate it herself.
Jack
(I don't want to get into her personal space. But, I will need to check her body carefully for any injuries and treat them if she's got any major ones)
Jack
(I really don't want to)
Jack
(I think she'll kill me if she knows I have to look at her so closely)
Jack
(Why does it have to be her?)
Jack
(I'm just going to have a look...)
Jack
(I'm not looking at her to take advantage of her - I'm just checking her body to check for wounds that need treating)
Jack
*carefully taking time and attention checking thoroughly for any wounds that may be causing an infection. Cleaning and Treating any wounds he finds with his own medical paste as he looks for them*
Jack
The good news is most are minor wounds that only need some medical paste I've already made for myself.
Jack
The bad news is she's got 5 slightly more serious wounds that I'll need to go look for different herbs to treat them quicker.
Jack
Most of these wounds are on her back, waist and side of her stomach.
Thankfully, I won't need to touch her in areas she would find too sensitive and uncomfortable for me to check...
Jack
I'll have to go get more of the medical herbs...
Luckily I know where to find some because I saw some yesterday when I went for my daily resources walk.
Jack
It's probably not urgent enough to need tonight...
Jack
I wouldn't make it to the herb and back here before nightfall...
Jack
So, I'll plan it for tomorrow's resources walk.
Jack
I'll also need enough food for 2 people instead of one.
So, I'll need to make a bigger carrying pouch or adapt this one so it carries more.
Jack
I can do that this afternoon before nightfall.
Then it will be ready for tomorrow.
Jack
*feeds Sam small dosages of water and mashed food again*
It's probably time to try get her to drink or eat again.
