RoleChapter 19 Journal, Page 12: The Healer In Training Added Sun Oct 20 04:29:38 2013 at level 29:Journal, Page 12: The Healer In Training Some time has passed again since the last time I'd written in my journal. The longer I live on this path, the harder it is for me to see items of significance in my life. The good I do has become more than merely a way to live my life. It's simply become a part of my life. But, of the things I've done, one thing that stands out in particular is having the Captain ask me to learn about first aid from the priests I do now. So, likely this page is merely going to be a list of my notes.
The Priests I've spoken to thus far have been Ipyme, Deaer, and Amatrysti. Ipyme being a Paladin, Deaer and Amatrysti being professional Healers.
What I'd learned from Ipyme was more from a soldiers standpoint, which in its' own right is very important. Many times in the field, you face a variety of creatures, beasts, and people. Each has found their own way of inflicting lasting harm. One of the difficulties in performing first aid is that it typically must be done on the field. Conditions are usually far from ideal. Simple wounds must be cleaned and dressed, bones must be set, and bleeding staunched. The difficulties therein being that first aid is easier when one knows exactly what inflicted the wound.
Amatrysti and Deaer touched on the field being a far from ideal place to dress wounds. Oftentimes clean, fresh water is not available, nor can you heat it to properly disinfect wounds. First aid is a medical necessity to prolong the life of the injured and suffering, but it is a basic one. Infected wounds can lead to a complicated healing later on. Improperly set bones will not heal properly and can inhibit movement, and bleeding wounds if left untreated may cause death later when the bleeding internalizes from the wound being sealed.
In addition, shrapnel left behind by the instruments dealing the harm can cause lasting problems as well. A piece of knife if left in the muscle can shred the muscle from the inside with even minor exertion. Worse, were shrapnel to be located in the upper torso and left there, overexertion could cause it to tear a path to either the heart or lungs, causing significant problems if not a quick death. Were it to puncture the liver or any organs in the abdominal area, death would be significantly slower and more painful, especially were the internal wounds to become infected.
Regardless the medical attention required, one must always be observant of the problems others are dealing with. One must use near all of their senses to determine the cause of the problem and deal with it not only quickly, but safely as well.
This knowledge, coupled with what I'd learned in the Academy of anatomy during my studies as a Necromancer may indeed help further my training as a Priest of the Light.
