Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll (a 55-word story)

She reluctantly spends Christmas eve in the ER. IV lasix hung with care. She returns to the nursing facility with only one ask: “When can I have sex?” I promptly pen a prescription for sex with groom of sixty-five years and a daily glass of wine, then play their song, “My Prayer” by the Platters.
