He informed Jordan he would be back in a few minutes. Leaving the room quietly he found a nurse and asked that they bring her some more pain medicine and if she was scheduled for release soon. The nurse pulled her up in the computer and saw that she was due for more pain medicine and would be released later in the afternoon. Making his way back into the room he sat down in the plush flowered covered chair across from her. "So what do you do besides spend a lot of time with your son?" "I'm an accountant." She said quietly. Andy's eyebrows rose. What type accounting?" "Business." She replied sleepily. I work from home so I have the freedom to choose my own hours so I am able to spend a lot of time with Cody." The nurse walked in at that moment to administer another dose of pain medicine. Andy and Jordan grew quiet while the nurse checked her IV and then left without much chatter. "So tell me about your friend. Is she the one who is keeping Cody for you?" Smiling broadly and affectionately at the mention of her lifelong best friend Jordan began talking. "Yes. Alexandria and I have been best friends since kindergarten. As a matter of fact I introduced her to her husband, Phillip. I was dating his best friend George at the time so we did a lot of double dating. Our high school years were wild but a lot of fun. We were always getting into mischief together. They refused to take us to the movies together after one time when we could not stop laughing through the whole movie. It was not our fault though. Every time something dramatic happened in the movie this guy would drop his keys. They decided that it just was not worth the embarrassment to take us together. We did lots of other things together like eating dinner and going to school dances. They would come and watch us cheer for our football games and take us on moonlight picnics in the park afterward. Life was very interesting and a lot of fun back then. Some of our best times were in high school but, then when we went to college things changed. We both had a career objective so the fun and games were over not to mention my relationship with George. He left for the Air Force and Phillip went off to Florida State. He kept in touch with Alex but George and I seemed to be going in different directions so we just decided to be friends instead. Phillip and Alex were married a few years ago. I dated several people after George but it just didn't seem to be the same till I met my husband and I threw the theory of living alone out the window. We just seemed to hit it off and it seemed inevitable that we would get married. I was not so sure of that marriage after Cody was born. We did have our good and bad times which I guess is what makes a good marriage last. Unfortunately ours never had a chance." Jordan grew quiet for a moment lost in her thoughts. Andy was surprised that she had revealed so much about herself but he was not about to speak of that now. "So did you and your husband get divorced?" He asked gently after a few moments. Jordan turned and looked at Andy without really seeing him; she was lost with her thoughts in the past. "Finally she answered him sharply letting him know that this was the end of their conversation. "No he passed away. I'm feeling a bit tired again I think I'll take a little nap before lunch arrives." With that she lay back against the pillows and sighed softly to herself. "I'll be back in a few minutes I'm going to see what we are going to have for lunch. Don't let anyone come in without letting the nurses know." Jordan waved a hand not wanting to answer Andy because she was already half asleep. Andy bumped into the nurse as she was coming in to give Jordan another check.
