A quick description of an office surgery unexpected.

Office so clean, white sterile color,

Quiet, calming, soft music plays,

Polite, thoughtful, sincere,

Helpful, workable, spontaneous,

Clothes removed, wash, dry,

Needle, pricks, pokes,

Stinging, burning, pressure,

Sterile blade, soft cut, pain felt,

Syringes, medications, pressure,

Tugs, Pulls, aches, almost done,

Yell, Hurt, Pain to head,

Needles again, stinging pressure,

Hands shaking, don’t seem to stop,

Medications taking large control,

Pull hard, now it is done, it is out,

Needle, nylon thread, feel the pain,

Shots none more, just finish it up,

Twinge, small moan, can handle it,

There all done, time to try to sit up,

Body shaking, hands shaking most,

Can apple juice, quince the thirst,

Hands under control, drive home,

Pain to sit upon any seat, ice pack soon,

A typical day that turned a bit blue,

Stitches in back today, way more then two…

    Yeah, foolish me. I did not expect any of it, all a surprise, so was at appt by myself, and I even was more foolish to stop by mall on way home for some Jelly Belly’s, but told myself would stop in shop real quick after appt, and even though hurt like heck, walked about as slow as a snail, I went in and got them, big mistake, by time got back to car, I just wanted to go home and go to bed !!!
