2 Days Later…

“I will be back later torrow morning to dress your wounds and to check up in that one that needs a little bit more care. Dr. Hannigan said as he closed up his suitcase and prepared to leave.

“Just make sure you take those antibiotics and pain relief drugs with meals.” He reminded me with a smile before leaving.

Oh, it had felt good to be home after every thing. I couldn’t do much yet until my cuts were healed and the suture had been removed which I

a relief and a pain.

He had to clean the wounds before moving any further and had been concerned about all of them especially that one that I knew hurt more. When he applied the clear liquid to clean them out I shricked from the pain. Had it not been for the towel that Nancy had left for me to bite on, I would have surely cracked a window.

My wounds were then stitched followed by gauze to catch any oozing. Dr Hannigan was kind enough to attend to me at home when he had learnt of the severity of my situation before he agreed to take a look.

“Mama, do you want to have some breakfast now?” Hayley asked gently beside me.

She never left my side since I had returned except for when I was initially being examined. She was both relieved and slightly upset with me but I tried to explain to her that I had gotten in to some trouble but that I was safe now.

“Only if you share breakfast with me! It had already become a routine of ours. At each meal time, she would join me with a plate of her own and while we usually never ate in the room, I guess this time was an exception to the rule.

She nodded eagerly then rushed out the room to tell the chef that we were ready for breakfast. A tray with eggs, roast, bacon, and a bowl of fruit had been arranged on a tray and placed over a wooden table that sat over my legs so I could eat without any pressure on my legs.

“I like eating breakfast with you.” Hayley said as she but in to some roast of her own.

“I like it, too. Although I like that you nap with me during the day alot. With all the meds that I had been taking, I had been falling asleep shortly after meals and Hayley would either fall asleep with me or bring some colouring of activity for her to quietly keep her entertained while I slept.

She didn’t disturb me and was ever so mindful of me. As much as I tried to have her calm and not stressed out, she rarely listened and insisted on serving as a junior nurse at my service. I found it cute and it had only made me realise what an amazing kid she was.

“We could play a board game when you wake up from your nap later. She suggested and I agreed because there really wasn’t much else that we could do.
