Terminal Decay: Seizures

The Terminal Decay Concordance

Terminal Decay by unslinky is a fan fiction novel that takes place shortly after the episode "The Planet of the Dead"in the series Doctor Who. The story is Alternate Universe to everything Doctor Who and Torchwood after that. Unslinky started posting this amazing story in May 2010 and here it is March 2011 and the story is far from being completed. The story is on the website A Teaspoon and an Open Mind.

I am such a big fan of this novel and it's amazing complexities, I decided to write a concordance for Terminal Decay.
The labels in this blog can be used to track of who's who and what's what in the novel. For instance if you scroll down to "seizures" you'll find that it has (3). When you click on that label you'll come up with the Chapters that has someone having a seizure: Chapter 410, 509, 555.
The summaries are just to jog your memory and sometimes I'll write something pertaining to that Chapter that is a bit of TD trivia. The Blog Entries themselves are listed below the rather long (and bound to be even longer) Labels section. Summary inconsistencies should be directed to me and I'll make corrections. Writing this is a long process so I'm far from being caught up but I'm trying! One final thing: I am American so my phrasing and spelling may look a little "off" to you in the UK
Allons-y, Donnaj

Terminal Decay Chapter 555

Chapter 555 link

The morning's activities are delayed about an hour so that everyone who stayed up most of the night can get a little sleep. Everyone has breakfast. Jack has not yet returned from stretching his legs. The Doctor awakes and is given several updates on everyone's condition, including how he fractured his garansicht when he had suffered two violent seizures. The Doctor asks about Jacko, Ryan and Pete and is concerned about John hurting his back and being in a jacket. The pain that the Doctor is feeling is excruciating causing him to involuntarily try and go into regeneration and respiratory bypass. John talks the Doctor through his pain and the bypass is adverted. Before he passes out from the pain, the Doctor says something to John in Gallifreyan: Kal histal…" and "Ej… n’jaro…" To which John sighs and replies that he is sorry.

Terminal Decay Chapter 509

Chapter 509 link

The Doctor suffers two violent seizures which lasted close to nine
minutes in duration. After being placed on the gurney the Doctor starts
to emit a eerily low wail that unnerves everyone. Luke discovers through
the TARDIS scan that the Doctor has broken his right femur which is worse
for a Time Lord than it is for a human to break. The break to his femur
is both proximal and distal in the shaft of his femur: shearing through
both ends. Jacko who wants to draw his Uncle Dad a picture is persuaded
to go the the TARDIS galley for biscuits. Wilf informs everyone that the
Doctor has hurt himself quite seriously. Sylvia and Wilf help Jackie take
the now very upset Jacko to the galley because he's heard and seen the
Doctor wailing and groaning.

Terminal Decay Chapter 410

Chapter 410 link

Rose, John and the Doctor discuss the ramifications of the treatment that the Doctor will receive. Rose is concerned about the connection the Doctor and John has and how his seizures are affecting John’s health. The Doctor tells Rose that the treatments that he will receive will leave John tired and he will be sore for a few days following the bone marrow is taken, and will feel like he has the flu once the Doctor’s treatments begin. The Doctor explains to Rose that once the treatments start he will be in great pain and may suffer bouts of confusion and disorientation and will have to be placed in isolation to protect his weakened immune due to the massive doses of radiotherapy and chemotherapy drugs in order to kill of his bone marrow.
