Yeowch! Poor Clark.

I must say, he's handling it very well; only let his Superman facade slip once.
Yeah, he's doing his best to keep his image of Superman up, but it's hard work....
After reading Part 1, I felt I needed to raid the medicine cabinet for a cocktail of Valium, Librium and Xanax. Unfortunately, I didn't have any of those. So I did one better; I ate really good chocolate. Better than drugs.
Now, after reading Part 2, I can almost breathe without the oxygen mask!

Am I going to be able to disconnect the blood pressure cuff, remove the pulse oximeter along with the heart monitor when reading the next Part?
You write so well, your story should come with the disclaimer "While reading this story, you can skip the treadmill at the gym. Guaranteed to raise cardiac activity."
Can't wait to read Part 3. Just in case, I'm shopping early for more chocolate.
Glad you're recovering :P Next part should help stabilize you a bit more, but I would keep oxygen fairly close still.
And thanks, I do what I can to help others get in shape the fun easy way :P
Chocolate is certainly a good idea.
Wow, excellent story. I'm impressed with how you're weaving the realistic medical situation into the story. That was definitely intense, and the medical and nursing staffs are definitely helping the situation with their calm encouragement and confidence. Nice to see that! Looking forward to Chapter 3.
I've been doing a fair bit of research, and I try to do my best to show doctors and nurses in their element whenever I can

Next part should be up in a few days.
Awesome! I'd love to see a major setback in the next chapter, maybe something that requires emergency surgery or even for the medics to have to get the jumper cables out... That sounds like tremendous fun...
There's still a few bumps on the horizon, that's for sure. Trying something I hope hasn't been done before....
It's a good thing the anesthesia works. I liked this chapter a lot. Clark is in capable hands. Curiously waiting for part 3
Yeah, he was definitely fortunate there. And thanks ^_^
