This is a very fitting missing scene, with a lot of little details that make it feel realistic. and I love the line where McCoy for once regrets that he can't be what people want him to be. It's a terribly poignant thing to think in this scenario.

Poor Bones.

I loved this! Thank you for writing it :)

Excellent scene, very well wrote.

I really enjoyed your fic.

Thank you.

Great scene…I like it better than the screen version.

Good story, minor details though (and that should really tell you what I think of the story if I'm nitpicking), Starfleet is one word, not two.
