"eric, i think you've lost connection to your left eye." romer takes eric hand and places it on the camero. "keep your hand here so you don't lose your balance. if you fall over and hit your head again, bad things." she takes his other hand and makes him hold the ice pack to his head. "keep this hand here too. i have to get the medipack. the first aid kit isn't cutting it."
romer cautiously steps back from eric. he teeters, but doesn't fall over. she gets her medipack, a bottle of water, and a towel from the back of the truck. romer returns to eric, removes his hand, and pours half of the water in the bottle on his head and the other half on the towel. she then carefully wraps the towel around eric's head. she pulls a large cotton patch, tape, and a bottle of pills from the medipack. she places the patch on eric's left eye and tapes it gently around his head in a manner that wouldn't apply pressure to the bump.
"i'm going to try to protect your eye. if we manage to find an actual doctor soon, we might be able to save it. otherwise, sorry. here, take one of these pills for now. in six hours, you can have two more. if your dizziness worsens, tell me immediately."
romer turned to squall. "we almost there? he needs to sit down and keep his head as still as possible."
