Abouna Panak has seen the future and the past, yet he is still quietly upset at seeing Lieutenant Colonel Merek’s condition. He stands at the back of the room as her family stand at her bedside, waiting to hear her prognosis from Doctor Azizi.

Very emotional scene. I have a friend that had open heart surgery. Its no joke! Dr. Azizi seems to be very clinical at a time when comforting the family would be helpful.
Hi Darnell, I hope your friend has made a good recovery? My dad had a heart bypass about 25 years ago, when technology wasn’t so good. Hopefully things have improved since then. They certainly have in Alexand’s time, 2000 years from now. Yes Azizi is a good doctor, but his bedside manner needs some work!
Thanks for asking. My friend has recovered. The technology has improved, however, my friend said he would never do it again. I hope they have the post pain issues resolved in Alexands time.
I’m glad your friend has made a good recovery.
