At last it seems the end is near.
The patient is doing well.
She doesn't need to rehab go,
So doctor's orders tell.
A PT nurse gave therapy.
An exercise or two.
The patient followed very well,
Until each step was through.
She walked around with little aid.
Her fluids flowing fine.
She got real food for the evening meal.
On potatoes she did dine.
They say a day or two or three,
And homeward she can speed.
With me as nurse and PCT,
And doing a housekeeper's deed.
I think I'm supposed to be glad.😅
If this is a new email for you, one of the previous ones was quite long so I finished with, "Next a novel." The subject of that one was "It was a dark and stormy night" so I proposed maybe an opera next. So of course I had to borrow from Gilbert and Sullivan's Pirates of Penzance and do a parody on 'the modern major general' using "She is the modern marvel of a patient out of surgery." Of course that required this one to be a poem.
