Dr. Duke's Day of Rest

I don't think Dr. Duke ever really gets a day off (most of the time I don't even think he gets consecutive hours of sleep at night). Today, however, his surgery schedule is slightly shorter - Dad's not on the list. Since he got the new micro-shift yesterday, today he's only having "micro-surgery". I got to see dad (and some of the micro-team) today. Even the newbies are already trying to escape.

Dr. Duke reported yesterday that the maggots are working. The ones he removed yesterday had grown quite large.

"They're about this big (*motions his pointer finger and thumb to signify about half an inch*) and they eat like teenage boys."

So, we asked for hungry maggots and that's what we got. Tomorrow they plan to do a routine wash out, and then on Monday the 3rd string of maggots will get to work their magic.
