DJ left fasting and thirsty in his hospital bed for a day because the doctor did not bother to appear and decide for or against surgery. Surgery finally, today. deemed unnecessary, physical therapy begins. 

Part of the morning spent getting the car readied for the next few months. Waiting room enlivened by a two year old with endless energy. No button was left unpushed, not chair left unscooted loudly across the floor. His grandma was heroic. 

Hurricane with winds the speed of a tornado’s hits Jamaica. Indra in fury. Where will anybody hide? Pictures of dogs on the abandoned streets of Kingston, waiting. 

Sat at the computer screen this morning sobbing, over– God remembers what. But I felt better afterward, clearly needing a release even as unfocused as that.
