Another liter of fluids infused. Another two hours. Tired. Leaning back.

"Hello, dear. You were asleep again. You've been tired a lot recently. We may have to get you checked. Now lie back down. I want to feel your arms around me."

A mockingbird was singing in the top of the tree. Loudly enough to be heard above the gentle, soothing sounds of the waterfall. The puppies were playing in the meadow.

They settled down on the blanket and listened to the sounds of nature around. Sleep came.

"It's time to deaccess your port. You're through for today."
