It's nightfall, the end of another long day. I'm waiting for the nurse to bring me a shot of morphine. Today they took out the chest tube only to insert a bigger one. They hope this new and improved, super size straw will adequately suck the air out of my chest cavity so my lung can expand again.
The nurse is exiting my room now. I feel the bliss of relief as the drug blocks my pain telling my brain all is well in my body. I will rest in this falsehood and slumber until the lie wears off and the truth prevails once again.
