Assumptions

An epiglottitis transfer from the ICU.
The words unvaccinated and immigrant in his chart.
A conversation with his mother,
A tablet between us bridging our languages.
No no, she says.
My son was born in Utah. He had all his vaccines.
A treatment plan, based on false assumptions.
A failure of the healthcare system.
