Sheryl : Lefebvre
Doctor : Le....can I call you Ms. Sheryl ?

Sheryl : Yes Lefebvre is difficult to pronounce. Sheryl is fine.

Doctor : It says on your form that, your son Logan has suffered some burns on his back. Would you
mind if we take a look?

Sheryl : Please go ahead. But please be careful! It hurts him to touch it.
Doctor : I understand. And this happened tonight? He was sleeping with his back to the heater. Is

that correct?

Sheryl : Yes. I didn't realize that the stupid things were hot enough to cause a burn! The room was
cold!

Doctor : I understand Sheryl .... OK Logan, we are going to remove your shirt now. It may hurt a

that the burn has penetrated his epidermis and has affected his dermis as well.
Sheryl : What can you do Doctor?
Doctor : We are going to apply an antibiotic cream to the burns. And I think that Logan has a slight
fever. We are going to take his temperature. If he has a fever, then there is a chance that he may

have an infection.
Sheryl : I see.
