Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hennet sat in his office - a small two room area, the patient waiting section (decked out in all the usual things such as a bed to sit on, monitors, scopes, bright lights and other mildly frightning doctor-ish things) and his own personal area where he prepped the shots and was able to do all other sorts of official doctor duties. The shots were ready, seven in total. He winced lightly and hoped that this child would be alright with needles.

The door to the patients waiting room was open, a message that his appointment should enter on their own.

Hennet looked up, gave a pleasent smile, and then glanced down toward the small girl. His smile softened more and he motioned toward the paper covered table. "Hello, if you'll just have a seat..."

He slipped back into his office area and grabbed the wheeled cart that held the needles and other materials and pulled it out, setting it up close but out of ready sight of the girl.

"If you're good, I've got a very, very special treat for you. But you need all your shots first. Would you like to know what they are?" He spoke in an extremly gentle paternal nature. He meant to ease the child's mind and curiosity.

Hennet nodded and pointed to the shots one after another. "All of these will keep you from getting very sick. This is for chickenpox - you don't want to be itchy, do you? This is for Influenza, or the Flu, mumps, meningococcal," he pointed at the two with the longest needles, "your tetanus shot and this one... this one will make sure you don't get scale sickness. It's very bad for your scales and makes them fall off.. my little girl had it.."

He began prepping the alcohol swap, gently reaching down to take the girl's wrist and turn her arm over so he could get at the underside of it. He gently swapped her arm. "But she got that shot and she's better! Now this is to make sure your skin is nice and clean. Do you want to pick which one is first? They all feel the same, I promise."

Hennet nodded. "Yes you are. Now... you'll feel a little bit of a pinch, okay? It makes it seem better if you don't look, and try to relax your muscles."

He deftly reached over as soon as he thought she wasn't looking and took the first large needle and slid it between a few of her scales, administering the shot. He followed with the second large needle and then another smaller one. Three shots in one arm.

"There! We're almost finished now." He held out two different boxes of band-aids, one box showed band-aids that were blue with smilie faces all over them, the other was a light shade of green with kittens on them. "Which ones do you want for this arm?"

It was best to break up the shots a little bit so the child had some time to relax in between. Four more to go.

Hennet nodded and administered the green band-aid onto her arm. He moved around to the other side, taking up her other arm and swabbing it with the alcohol to make sure it was clean.

"Alright, just four more." He gave her the last four one after the other, finshing up by placing the other band-aid on. "Very good! You were an excelent customer, Anataela. I think you deserve that very special treat."

He went into his backroom, taking with him the empty needles to dispose of. He rummaged around a little bit before coming back out holding one small plastic ice-cream cup and a wooden spoon. "Here you are, one vanilla sundae swirl ice cream." He handed them over to the little chameleon girl.

"Thank you very much for coming in." he spoke now to the guardian.

Hennet shook his head. "The most she might feel is a bit tired tonight... a few of the shots might ache a little for a few days, but it won't be anything extremly painful. As for the next appointment.. well I'll send you a message next time I need to see you."

He reached out to shake Faidrae's hand. "Thank you very much, if you have any questions concerning your child's health please feel free to contact me."
