The Doctor on the Second Floor
Daniela Arroyo, a third-year resident in Internal Medicine at Valdoreyo District Hospital, has spent two months sketching time series in a grey notebook. There are six deaths in five weeks that don't add up: elderly patients, all close to discharge, all on the Wednesday night shift, all on the same prophylactic infusion. The department is short-staffed because it's July. Her mentor tells her to rest. Her mother tells her not to make waves. The medical director asks her for proof. The statistics ask for another sample. She decides what gets looked at, and what it costs to look.
