We are the same people that treated you for spina bifida all those years ago. We wanted to make sure the problem would never occur in your children, but there were unexpected side effects in some. We’re just checking you out for any of those.” Your hands and feet are tied to the bed as she takes some blood from your arm.

You wait for the next few hours how do you spend the time?
