"A friend."                                                      

Mark came shifting them aside, testing her pressure then her glucose seeing she had a slight temperature. "When did you have your last meal?"                                               

Opening her eyes slowly, "Doc I just need something to soak my head, not a doctor."                                              Sitting next to her, "this is my friend Mark and his wife Gail." Waving to them, "My Lady this is the friend I told you that has invited me to the function on Saturday, he is also a doctor."                     

Looking up to where he was standing, "tell me what your prognosis is? I only had grapes for lunch and all just came out a little while ago, you are the doctor but I could do with a pain tablet right about now, because I believe it is gas that went up in my head."
