The visiting nurse comes by my bedroom to give me a special treatment.
It had been a couple of weeks since I was released from the hospital after falling down a small flight of steps and breaking my leg. I had a wonderful nurse who the first night I was there. She came in and said I’m Nancy Corrigan and “I’m your nurse!”
She took good care of me in the hospital and I thanked her for her fine work. So it came as a bit of a shock when I was being lazy and laying on the couch that the phone rang and it was Nancy.
