'Doctor's Orders' by Elisa Dominique Rivera

The doctor gathered all her earthly people skills to give me the news with a straight
face. No, I can't have a face reconstruction to increase the air hole behind my tonsils. Yes, we
can perform UPPP to step into the fire, she said, and sacrifice the tissues behind my throat.
But really, she gave a genuine smile, the best and easiest course of action is using water and a
breathing apparatus to cure my sleep apnea.
