Sorry I took so long - printer problems.
OK. What can Lois do?
1 - Like Wendy, I'm suspicious of the secret admirer. This email does sound an awful lot like Lex. Lois knows (knew) Lex even better than we, the readers, so if we're having second thoughts about Lex's demise, so should Lois. Definitely needs to look into this more. What about the autopsy report? How did they identify the body? Lois needs to investigate this more.
2 - I still think our friend Bob's job title is suspicious sounding. (Thanks for having Lois ponder this coincidence, too!)
3 - The lack of dial tone when Doc Klein hung up. Very suspicious. Was someone else listening in? Lois should be wary. Would the lack of dial tone on Lois' end mean the person listening in was at StarLabs or at the Planet? I'm not sure how that works.
4 - Reading Clark's POV has got me wondering if he is being held in Lex's home-away-from-home bomb shelter (the one he invited Lois to in "All Shook Up"). If Lois begins to wonder whether Lex is alive, maybe she'll also remember this underground shelter and decide to look into it.
5 - I also have been thinking about the secret admirer's statement that "certain people suspect that there was an intrusion last night at the facility". It's only 7 am when he wrote that, and already he has learned that someone suspects an intrusion. He must be VERY close to the source, to know this so soon. Plus, what makes them suspect this? Lois did not appear to arouse anyone's suspicious, she claims there were no cameras watching her, and she replaced the files and re-locked the cabinet. Hmmmm....
6 - If she can find a way, I'm for going back into the hospital and trying to get into the Capt. America ward. (Even if her secret admirer is warning her off!)
Well, that's all I could come up with.
As far as feedback, this story is very well-written and entertaining. Keep writing!

PS - sorry to hear about your bad experience. I know how disheartening that can be. Definitely get another doctor, preferably one who knows what he's doing! You'll be in my prayers.
