They drifted in and out, sometimes two or three at a time, sometimes one voice in a monotone.
In between all this, I dreamed, mostly about the hospital and the few people that I'd met.
And the new patient laying there, his face closer now, his lips moving frantically, his head shaking as if trying to loosen itself from his neck to fly wild-eyed at me.
This time, though, I saw more than when I was in his room.
I saw pleading in his face, and even if I couldn't hear it, the word leave came to me.
The dream seemed completely devoid of the joy I had entered the hospital with.
I wanted that back and heard myself calling out to anyone who would listen.
I felt myself jostled, breaking me out of my dream state and voices shushing me.
When I opened my eyes, two nurses stood over me, rubbing a cloth over my body with the faint odor of a disinfectant.
I felt good about that.
No infections that way.
I expected another prick from the syringe to keep me from moving around unnecessarily, but it didn't come.
The two nurses parted, and Dr. Phelps bent down, placing a small gadget near my forehead.
A moment later, he nodded with satisfaction.
He did other things, after which all three smiled at each other.
I could hear a gurney coming up the hall.
That same sound, the little wobble in one of its wheels.
My voice came to me.
It's time?
I asked.
