The scenic route

They switched out the drain, he wasn't having pain, we left the hospital, went to IKEA, ran into his mother and sisters there, visited my sister, started home, and then came back thinking it would be a good idea to be closer to the hospital. He was in so much pain.

I have an extensive arsenal of narcotics; nothing was working. I'm grateful we could come back to Adele's and lay the man down. Gary gave him a blessing; within minutes he was pain free and went to sleep.

All in all, I guess it was a better day than I had expected. Really, I like days where you get 1/3 of the way home and have to come back. It's the scenic route.
