As I awoke, only my left eye would open.  The right was swollen shut.

“Ah, I let the Devil out of the bottle and he kicked my ass again.”

I heard her as she squeezed water from a cloth.  The smell was familiar, but I could not place it.

“Eucalyptus?  Mint?”

The instant it graced my face, its warmth relieved my pain. Neither of those…chloroform.
