Hey, they'll get through this

The whumpee is at a bad shape, maybe unconscious, maybe even on a coma, but most certainly, weak. Great chance for intubation or oxygen mask, and all sort of machines keeping them alive, or the always reliable field medicine.

And oh, what a (dis)confortable chair for the caretaker stay all night, waiting for the whumpee to open their eyes.

Worried friends around twisting their hands waiting for news? Sure, we'll take them too.
