CVS

‘My vomiting disturb you?’ he said.
‘Your what?’ I said.
‘My vomiting...you heard it?’
‘Why, you doing it outside my door?’
‘No,’ he said. ‘Just I’ve been vomiting a lot the last few days. I’ve got CVS and I thought you might’ve heard me.’
‘No,’ I said, ‘can’t say I have.’
‘The wife’s away and I’m doing it a lot at the moment.’
‘What’s CVS?’
‘Cyclical Vomiting Syndrome, start vomiting can’t stop...thing is I take morphine for my back doesn’t help me eat, I lost three stone once...’
‘Must be difficult this time of year losing all that liquid.’
‘Yeh, it is.’
The three of us got out the lift and as I put the key in my door he said to us, ‘anyway, have a nice day.’
