  He went ahead and checked her incision. And he also gave her the over-the-counter cream that he had bought to keep infection away. He was more worried about her going into some kind of sepsis. No, right now, she seemed to be in good spirits. He was going to keep an eye on her temperature and also give her pain relievers. Luckily the pain relievers that the nurse had left out for his people to take were there. He didn't want to give her too many of them even though she probably needed them only because she was breastfeeding.That was probably one of the reasons why the baby was slightly lethargic because she had been taking the pain relievers the day before while she was both in surgery and after. He needed to actually see her medical chart to understand exactly what they did. The incision that she had was not one of the normal ones. He wanted to be able to advise her and some simple things. But he needed to actually pull that up, and right now, he

   Closer to the house and he could see a huge pile of stuff that was in front of it. He was furious, and she looked absolutely mortified. It seemed that most of it were stuff that she had collected for the baby. Things that would have been used for the first year of its life. That was when he actually saw a red just because she was so upset right when she actually saw everything.“I don't think I can get everything into the car. However, she left it in a place that doesn't seem to be visible from the house. I'm going to call a couple of people to ask them to come over here, and we can just load everything up. We can bring it back to the house.” he said as he looked at her, and she was just shaking. He got out and started to load up the trunk as he was talking into his phone. “I don't need you to ask me any questions, but I need some help. I need you to bring your truck over here, and do you think that you can have your

   Over the next few hours, the dude really didn't move that much. She had pretty much made it home on the couch and was able to do very little for herself or for the baby, let alone try to take care of the house. It wasn't that he had expected her to either. Somehow she thought that she would be able to get up and do something, but she really couldn't. she had started to feel dizzy, and he realized that she probably needed to eat. He wasn't going to subject her to cooking today, so he went ahead and ordered some dinner. She deserved to be able to eat, and she needed to so she could not only take care of herself but so she could take care of the baby as well.Little conversations here and there were the things that were getting them through the rest of the night. Don't neither one of them wanted to talk about anything serious they were just getting to know each other. They were going to have to rely on each other at the end of this, and

  Turn the TV on and began to flip through the channels with the baby in his arms. He knew that he could put him down in any of the different vessels that they had, but for right now, it just seemed like it was the most natural thing to do. Just to hold the baby close to him and at least let him feel that somebody was there. It's what they would be encouraging in the hospital.And the baby didn't seem to mind too much. Every once in a while, he'd wiggle or squirm, but it was just to get readjusted into a new position. Soon he had him propped up against his chest as they both were watching the TV. Jonathan knew that the baby couldn't actually see that far, but it was interesting to see how the baby reacted to different leaps in colors. It was like his own science experiment that was going on right in front of his eyes in his living room. Jade finally opened her eyes a little bit and looked at the two of them, and kind of smiled and then closed her eye

  He sent a text message to her just checking in and was not surprised when he got an immediate response saying that everything was fine. That took a lot of his mind. And he was able to concentrate. He was finishing up his reports that he was going over the toxicology reports for a few of their patients. And he was noting everything in the correct file. Most of what he did was paperwork. It wasn't exciting at all. A lot of people thought that his job could possibly be one of the most exciting, but it really wasn't. It was long and tedious and sometimes very boring. Though he enjoyed doing what he did, it was one of those things that he found was not exactly would you plan for.He also knew that he had some that tech about two hours ago to go find a terminal that he can use to pull up the information. It had been that long, at least when is surprisingly, as soon as he thought about it, the man showed up out of nowhere. He had a stack full of files in
