Alex wasn’t a doctor, but he knew what this combination of medicine was used for, and he was suddenly all too aware that no matter what he said or did, there wasn’t much he could do to ease the burden on the man, Mr. Fox, in front of him, especially if he was the one to pick up the medication, as opposed to, well, anyone else. And while he dealt with patients who got this combination of medicine often enough, he never felt quite so unsettled by it as he did today, so pissed off that there was nothing he could do, besides send mr. Fox on his way with the medication for his father.

 

He felt the overwhelming need to go text his own father and Leo, right now, but that would have to wait.
