the patient
fiction
edward w pritchard
The patient was intensely focused on what would happen next. The patient was about to die and this was the final scene for someone who was curious to the mystery of being and non-being.
We were a distraction to the patient; with our medicine and our routines.
With child like attention and focus the patient proceeded on with his journey. At the end just before he left us, I watched the patients eyes closely hoping to get a clue for myself what was ahead.
