Description
“About those test results…”
“A-are you absolutely sure?”
Accidents happen all the time with blood tests.
“Again. Please, run the tests again.”
“Apologies, but the results are final.”
August to December.
All the time I have left.
Anemic feelings by the time I leave the doctor’s office.
Avoid eye contact with the other waiting patients as I step out the door.
Anger sets in as I sit in the car.
Also joined by denial.
All I know, he just got out of med school!
Apologies to God, hoping I can get more time.
Apathy sets in after that.
A calm composure sets in as I drive to the hardware store.
About $5 for the flexible tubing.
Advantageous that nobody’s home as I drive into my garage.
All my grieving wife can eavesdrop from the medical examiner:
Asphyxiation by CO2 from car exhaust. DOA.
