going to bed

Sorry, so tired.  This will short.  Got a call yesterday morning had to fly to LA.  A dear friend in the hospital.  Arrived at 6pm.  Stayed the night in ICU, no room for cots.  Got a couple blankets, made a makeshift pallet on the floor next to his bed.  Didn’t sleep much though, 2 1/2 hours tops.  The woman in the bed next to him died in the night.  A lot of alarm bells and then nothing.  They spent forever disinfecting the bed and space that she was in.  Don’t want to even contemplate what she died of, all alone.  The doctor made me leave finally tonight.  Didn’t want to go.  Going to sleep now.  Probably won’t write for a couple days.  Just didn’t want anyone to wonder, worry.  xo
