Presbury’s injuries were alarming and serious. He needed a quality surgeon’s immediate assessment. That professional recommendation was rejected outright however to protect reputation and position, neither of which would be of much use to the man debilitated or dead. All my years of experience were in an instant overruled and the matter settled. As ever, only Holmes’ word is final.

Glad you liked the slightly bitter quality to it! I just found it ridiculous that a combat doctor would be overruled about a violent injury like this. I was mad for Watson, even if he wasn't for himself.
