Pain in perspective

Annie: "Is the doctor going to take out that drain from your wound tomorrow?"

Me: "Yes, and I'm terrified."

Annie: "How come?"

Me: "Because last week he removed the first one, and it hurt so badly I started crying."

Annie: "Mom! You had surgery! You could have died--you could have died on the table and you didn't! Now you're going to worry about having a tube removed?"

Annie has a total point. But my point is: You've been hauling a DRAIN around all week?

At the risk of tarnishing my reputation as a "Dream Girl," yes Coop, two of them.

Now let's never mention it again, okay?

You'll never hear the word 'drain' from my lips again. But give yourself a break. Even "Dream Girls" occasionally need shoring up.
