[Phone call earlier] (Conclusion: not again...)

So who is injured this week? Huh, how did he.... Yup, shouldn't have gone to the forrest, oh well. We'll do bites and stings then.
Wait what, he's allergic to it as well? Did he had a full on anaphylaxis? No? Ughhhhh, such a trouble magnet, yeah we'll cover allergies as well then, any more injuries? No, good, let's keep it that way....

How did we end up with so many injured personel.

Wait what? They injure themselves AGAIN? Is it dodgeball? Didn't I tell them that was a bad idea... Right, we'll do bones, muscles, and joints this week then.
