i could give him ten breathing treatments he’s still 84 years old struggling to breathe at 4:45 in the morning i could give him twenty treatments he still has CHF jamming the right chamber of his heart flooding his lungs he’s not drowning in it, not yet but every breath is a squat ****** i sit with him at 4:45 in the morning administering useless medicine watching ice truckers, shooting the **** it’s not lasix, which is what he needs to flush the fluid but i’m good company and so is he and that will have to be therapy enough at 4:45 in the morning
