The doctor completed his morning rounds at around 10:30 and Tessa was his last patient. After handing over Tessa’s prescription for 3 EPI-pens to May, the doctor unclipped an index card for her as well. “I was asked to personally deliver this invitation to you by Spencer this morning.”
May was surprised for a couple of reasons, but she only voiced one of them. “How did he know you are Tessa’s doctor?”
The middle-aged doctor chuckled and May could see the sparkles in his eyes when he spoke of the young boy. “Spencer is a very special kid here. He knows all the staff here and he is not shy to grab our list of patients when we do our rounds. Sometimes, he even follows along.”
“Sounds like he’s a regular!” May was surprised she thought that out loud. She looked apologetically at the doctor. “Would it be a breach of privacy if I ask what sort of illness Spencer has?”
