Fortunately, many in the medical field see pain as an obstacle for
healing. If it had not been for opioids I would not have had any sleep
at all for the two months it took to heal. I was also well informed
about the risk of the medication I was taking. I liked not being in
pain, but I can't say that I enjoyed being stoned have the time. Some
people seem to like that part.
