IX. MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION
==========================================================================
Born and raised in rural Britain Arthur Hyde was a bright boy. Bright enough
to be accepted into the Cambridge University where he studied medicine. Bright
enough to have dreams that went even beyond elite college and beyond setting
up shop up as a country doctor in Herefordshire or perhaps in London.

Right after taking the Hippocratic oath he went straight for San Francisco
and applied for Starfleet Academy, already 22 years old but bringing his
completed medical education to the table.

Arthur hated the next four years of uniforms and drills and discipline. He
strongly disliked especially the latter, unless it was self-imposed.

For three years on the FALSTAFF he was the lowliest life form in the medical
world - an intern - until he was sent to SF Medical Academy to complete
and broaden his professional skills.

Arthur did well there and fell for a pair of sparkling brown eyes and
wheat-colored hair both belonging to nurse Anne Bale.

They got married the same day Arthur received his final diploma from the
Medical Academy.

For the next eighteen years the couple rotated together through various
assignments first as doctor and nurse later as doctor and doctor until
Cassiopeia was born in 2399 aboard the NORTH CAROLINA and Anne retired
from active practice to raise the girl.

Professionally Arthur saw a lot of carnage on the battleships he served on. 
Except for a five-years stint as instructor back on Medical Academy he 
seemed type-cast for military vessels. Still, personally it was a wonderful time.

Until Anne Hyde was diagnosed with Iverson's disease.

She never asked for anything but Arthur knew of course that life on a 
Starfleet was not conductive to stabilizing her deteriorating condition.

He could have requested a desk job somewhere on a planet but Arthur went a step further.

Now he became the country doctor he didn't want to be in his early life.
He treated his patients to the best of his ability, dispensing medication
along with a piece of rugged wisdom here and there. Often his patients were 
left wondering what tasted more bitter but in the end they found themselves 
cured. Every free minute with Anne or working on a cure for Iverson's, futile 
as it seemed. For a while the fresh country air seemed to help. But in the end 
it was futile. As a doctor it was double painful for him to watch Anne waste 
away. No amount of medical training could prepare him for her eventual death.

After the funeral Arthur vanished as if the Earth had swallowed him up. 
It took his daughter almost two weeks to find him again in a cabin on Mount Snowdon.

She yelled at him. Then they talked for hours and hours. Arthur emerged from the 
cabin with a new-found sense of life.

The next day he contacted Starfleet again and as it turned out Starfleet had
an assignment for an aging country doctor.
