Another Hospital Visit

Hello again Inspector! Nurse Havershome grins widely as she greets the handsome policeman. It's a pleasure to see you so soon. What brings you here this time? Warren's smile is feeble compared to the young woman's, who is eager to make a better acquaintance. I'm sorry to say, its not under better circumstances this visit. I would like to speak to Mr. Ó Seachnasaigh's physician, it's rather urgent. Of course, right away sir. Still grinning, she gives a half curtsy and dashes off. If the situation were not in dire straights, he might be more amused at the attentions of the attractive nurse.
Presently, Nurse Havershome reappears with a doctor trailing her. A man in his mid-fifties, with thick spectacles and wiry hair that looks like electricity styled it. Dr. Duchamp, this is Inspector Warren from Scotland Yard; he is here about Mr. Ó Seachnasaigh. Thank you nurse. Warren smiles and tips his hat. Nurse Havershome day dreams as she watches the two return down the hall.
Please have a seat, Inspector...Warren, Sir. Yes. Well, I spoke to your superior earlier and it was most distressing, most distressing indeed. Dr. Duchamp's eyes bulged behind the thick lenses, like a dead fishes, and shook his head just enough to animate his eccentric hair. With all the recent stress, Warren found it hard not to laugh and he could use a side ache right about now. I'm sorry I was unavailable Doctor, but I was working on the case involving your patient Ó Seachnasaigh. Superintendent Sugden is anxious to close this case and there are 'connections' to a more serious crime we are deeply concerned with. I understand you have a job to do, Inspector, but I am only concerned with my patients and this hospital. I do not appreciate a yelling man, even from Scotland Yard, demanding the impossible. As I tried to explain to him, we do not know why Mr. Ó Seachnasaigh's health has rapidly declined and are still unable to determine a course of action. All the tests are negative and the symptoms are not responding to any treatments we have attempted so far. If it continues this way, the patient will die.
Warren moves his hand across his abdomen, recalling his own recent experience with the parasite and wonders, if indeed, this occurrence is the same.  If so, the Dr. has diagnosed the right outcome and it may be sooner than he realizes. Feeling no empathy for the dying man, who has tried to murder his friend, Warren asks to see the man. It's vitally important I question him and find out what happened; it may assist in saving his life. Dr. Duchamp looked dubious, but agreed to a short visit. I will have one of the nurses escort you to the critical ward. You will have 15 minutes and no more. Thank you Doctor, I appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this important matter. It could save the life of another. Dr. Duchamp's bushy brows went up, but he made no remark. Calling the nurse's station, he explained what was to be done. If you'll wait outside, the nurse will be with you directly. Warren stands up and thanks the doctor again. If I discover anything significant, I'll stop by your office on my way out. With that, Warren closes the door and waits in the hall. I hope I do find something out...there is a connection here, somewhere, to the Ripper murderer.
