Pov 3 person .
Lappland: " Good . Now that we are done with this topic . Do we have anything else to discuss or can I go now ? I have things to do ."
Asked Lappland openly bored , stretching slightly on her chair .
Dr. Linzi : " Unless , you are not interested in your current health and life , we have nothing to discuss . "
Dr. Linzi replied coldly . Lappland hearing this did not respond but sat quietly in her seat . And that was enough of an answer on her part .
Dr. Linzi : " I honestly don't have too many things to discuss . Other than the growth and expansion of the crystallization on your body . On the x-ray I did not see anything bad happening to the organs . "
Dr. Linzi : " No damage or too much crystallization . Most of the process , as I thought yesterday occurred on the skin and muscles . But most , dose not an all . So of the crystallization occurred on the bones and two organs . "
Said Dr . Linzi pulling out so docunts from a drawer in her desk .
Dr. Linzi : " I don't have to explain that the crystals , weaken the structure of the bone and when the crystal on the bone breaks ...... We will have problems because the bone will most likely break along with it . And unlike bone , the crystal will not grow together . It is even hard to say what would happen to the crystallized part of the bone after the fracture . "
Said Dr. Linzi calmly , pulling out a physical copy of the X-ray .
Dr. Linzi : " Besides , the amount of dust in this blood has not increased , but it shows a certain amount of energy charge which raises your body temperature by three degrees . It does not threaten your life , but of course it is not good , but I also have no way to deal with it . "
Said Dr. Linzi looking through another sheet of paper with many words and tables written on it .
Dr. Linzi : " One thing you can really do , however, is to be careful of your bones and kidneys . "
Said Dr. Linzi , again looking at the X-ray .
Dr. Linzi : " An alarming amount of crystals are on your kidneys . And as I ntioned , the crystallization that occurred yesterday on the organs , occurred on the kidneys . Looking at the fact that the kidneys are quite exposed . If hit too hard , it will surely shatter the crystals located on them . Also , I expect you may start having urinary problems , so another test to add to the list ."
Said Dr. Linzi , no longer putting too much care into her warnings . After all, Lappland has already made it clear that she will do whatever she wants . Dr. Linzi is no longer going to talk sense into Lappland or urge her to change her mind .
Lappland: " I understand , watch my back . During the fight at least I can do so much . Besides , I have no intention of getting hit in the back anyway . As for the bones ...... There is not much I can do "
Said Lappland , nodding her head in her casual position on the chair .
Dr. Linzi : " Now, however . Let's move on to sothing important you might want to listen to . "
Said Dr. Linzi , standing up with photos of Lappland's brain scan in her hands . Then showing them under the light , she pointed out to Lappland the black dot , existing in the photo .
Lappland : " I had a question about this before . But isn't the crystal in the brain fatal ? You know like a tumor or sothing ? "
Asked Lappland staring at the photo .
Doctor Linzi : " No it is not fatal . Besides , a tumor and this , are completely different things and situations . Your condition is not normal or natural ."
Said Dr. Linzi shaking her head .
Dr. Linzi : " I won't dwell on it . But think about it like this . It's as if you lost part of your brain . The crystal in return takes the place of the lost tissue , so it's not like it doesn't have its place there and it has to push , pressing on other areas in the process like a tumor does . "
Dr. Linzi : " However, as for the loss of parts of the brain ? People can live without so parts of their brain .There is even a person who lived with only the brain stem . But the best example to your situation is the story of a person who because of an accidental dust explosion found himself with a rod stuck in his skull . "
Said Dr. Linzi looking at Lappland , who sohow seed interested in the story .
Dr. Linzi : " He lost a large part of his brain but at least he survived . Unfortunately , his personality changed drastically . "
{ ----For those curious . Phineas P. Gage , is a real person who suffered a serious brain injury when a steel rod pierced through his skull, destroying much of his frontal lobes. According to many accounts, the event significantly changed Phineas' personality traits and temperan .----- }
Added Dr. Linzi looking at Lappland and showing her to get up and co closer to her .
Lappland: " Is it the sa with ? Is my personality sohow different ? "
Asked Lappland curious , as she stand up and walk towards Dr. Linzi .
Dr. Linzi : " No , your personality has not changed at all . You are the sa as you were years ago . What I told you was just an example and perhaps a possibility ....... "
Said rather mysteriously Dr. Linzi , looking at Lappland , who did not react much to her words .
Dr. Linzi : " Your unnatural outburst towards Blake ...... Well , it may have been not caused by it . But tell Lappland . Do you feel that it is worse with your ntal state than it was ? "
Asked Dr. Linzi . However , Lappland snorted with laughter and a mischievous smile appeared on her face .
Lappland: " It's hard to say . Is it better or worse ? I don't know . It's not for to judge . But from what you say doctor . It can be even worse with ? "
Asked Lappland sarcastically , knowing full well that it can't get any worse with her head .
Dr. Linzi : " May be ...... Or not . Anything is possible when it cos to possible brain injuries . Even sothing like a mild concussion can change everything . "
Said Dr. Linzi , sighing. She herself did not know the answer . The only thing she could say and what was certain was that anything is possible at this point .
Dr. Linzi : " Honestly, I don't know much about it . I am a psychologist , a surgeon and a few other things . However, I have never acquired a specialty in the functioning of the brain . But I believe that yes , crystallization will lead to brain damage and these can cause further deterioration of your ntal state . "
Dr. Linzi : " However, it can also cause , mory loss , disability , total or partial paralysis .Or who knows it may even cause so of the connections in your head to start working " properly ". "
Said Dr. Linzi honestly , looking again at the photo . However, sincere fatigue and uncertainty could be heard in her tone . She is not omniscient . She is just an ordinary doctor , no one famous or prominent . The fact that she sdoby as many as six diplomas at her age , is only due to her hard work . However, this does not an that she is a genius . So far she has co this far in the Lappland case only because she has co to the obvious conclusions .
Dr. Linzi : " Relatively , the crystal is a cititer high and half a centiter thick . Contrary to appearances , it took away a small part of your brain and only crystallized on the surface . This area of the brain itself does not seem to have been damaged too much . But saying this from a scan alone is impossible . However , since you say all is well , I can only hope that when sothing starts to happen you will report to imdiately . "
Said Dr. Linzi , finally moving on to analysis .
Lappland: " I lost a piece of my brain but I didn't notice anything . I am full of crystal shards and dust . But I didn't notice anything "
Said Lappland , sarcastically . Her mood was unreadable but , there was so amusent in her , probably caused by the whole situation .
Dr. Linzi : " And I am not surprised . Crystallization itself damages many receptors around . Including pain receptors . In addition , your natural ignorance about pain and the life situation of recent years , made you ignore anything related to your body . The crystallization of your body manifested as fevers and pains , which you glossed over by drinking alcohol or ignored as consequences of other injuries . "
Said Dr. Linzi and in her voice there was clearly so sympathy regarding Lappland .
Dr. Linzi : " Not even ntioning your ntal state . It's normal for you to be daydreaming or being not present . So I wouldn't be surprised if you were simply ignoring the pain at the ti of your psychosis . In the end, There are many logical reasons why you might not have known that sothing was going on . Besides , the brain itself has no pain receptors . Therefore it is impossible to feel pain in the brain . "
Concluded Dr. Linzi , staring at the scans . And as for her words , Dr. Lizni was right . Because of the type of life Lappland lived . Being in constant pain or mild fever due to poorly healed Injuries was Lappland daily reality . Besides , addictions and obvious bad ntal state , made Lappland completely ignore her body .
Lappland: " So what do I should ultimately get out of all this ? The crystal in my head doesn't kill but can change my personality ? "
Asks Lappland, ultimately not knowing what she was supposed to learn . Dr. Linzi after hearing this closed her eyes and sighed .
Dr. Linzi : " The re loss of part of the brain does not endanger you . So replacing the lost part didn't harm you either . However, I never said it doesn't kill you . As you yourself already know very well . The crystals and dust are heating up when the crystallization process accelerated . "
Dr. Linzi : " Just like the dust in your blood , which raises your body temperature . The crystal in your head also heats up . This ans that even if your brain does not continue to crystallize , it will surely heat up . And that , as long as it doesn't kill you , it will definitely hurt . And I honestly suspect that this is what caused your uncontrollable aggression last night . "
Said Dr. Linzi , putting down the photo to look Lappland in the eyes . Her ssage was clear . It was another warning . But this ti there were no more words . Dr. Linzi let Lappland herself co to a conclusion .
Dr. Linzi : " Your brain os literally being cooked from the inside . And this certainly has a huge impact on you. "
Said Dr. Linzni looking at Lappland standing in front of her.
Dr. Linzi : " That's it for now . There is nothing more I can tell you or do in this matter . "
Said Dr. Linzi returning to the desk to put away the scans . After which she went over to the cabinet to pull out a bandage .
Dr Linzi : " Before you go , however , let just take another look at you . "
Said Dr. Linzi looking at the ssy bandages under Lappland's clothes .
