My Husband had an M.I.=Myocardial Infarction/ haiku
Having an M.I.
Ambulance to JFK
Cardiac cath stat!
Andre Bocelli
Our seats remained empty for
Open heart surgery
Next to CCU
Waiting in the fam'ly lounge
Wanting just good news
Here at JFK
Dr. Lancelot Lester
Mended his poor heart
He won't even know
What day it is tomorrow
Morphine works so well
You won't even know
That I'm staying close by you
While wiping your brow
Post-op time so tough
You must never say out loud
Oh, no, PVC's!
Let his sternum heal
Start on a special diet
When can we have ***?
This series of haikus was written at John Fitzgerald Kennedy Hospital while my husband was post-op from open heart surgery.
