“Mr. Stein,” said the woman’s voice on the other line, “We have processed your CT Scans and need you to return to your doctor right away.”
Hmmm . . . waiting . . . moments of waiting; Waiting to see the triage nurse,
Waiting to see the doctor,
Waiting to see the surgeon,
Waiting to see if the medication works,
Waiting for more test results,
Waiting, dear God . . . waiting.
