Chapter 12: The Drawer

The drawer held four things.

A blue cardboard folder.

A black notebook with a rubber band around it.

A zippered plastic bag with a tin inside it, and a woman's hairbrush in a second bag beside it.

I sat down on the floor with my back against the dresser and laid them in my lap.

I opened the folder first, because I am a nurse, and a nurse reads the chart.

It was from a neurology service at Johns Hopkins.

Progressive peripheral neuropathy, alopecia, severe abdominal pain, weight loss of forty pounds.

Etiology unknown.

Autoimmune workup negative.

Two physicians had written the same line in different words.

Toxic exposure not excluded. Family declines further testing.

I had read a hundred of these pages.

I had never read one with my hands shaking.
