Naomi- Sure. I did actually think i went a little overboard on them, but i had the theasaurus on Word so i was playing around with it! And yeah I confused even myself with the tenses. I'll change it! ;)
I will make the necessary changes, so check back in a few days and let me know.
Glad you're liking it though.

The story line looks interesting here, and the spelling is good.
But watch the grammar. You start out in present tense ("As Sam walks through triage..." switch back and forth for the first couple of paragraphs, and then settle into past tense.)
You might also go a little easier on the adverbs. Especially in the first scene virtually every line of dialogue has someone speaking 'tenderly' or 'politely' or 'awkardly.' Adverbs are best used sparingly. It's usually clear from the words themselves 'how' they are being spoken. If Sam is yelling at Luka, it's obvious that she's furious. If she's asking a question of Susan, it's clear that she's confused, so you don't need to tell us that she 'looks bemused.'

(And one little thing, which is a bit of a nit-pick of mine. When you write dialogue, there is a comma between the words and the speaker ID, and the first word of the speaker ID isn't capitalized (unless it's the actual name.) "So it would look like this," said Naomi. "Not like this." She explained. Clear?
