Grey Sparrow is defunct, but you can read the story here.

“Packing the Wound” was published in Grey Sparrow Journal and is about the trials and tribulations of post surgery home-care. Frankly, it’s disgusting, but more than being about the horrible things that a human body does to a person, this is a story of the love it takes for someone to care for such a human body. Anyways, despite the wretchedness of the content, this was an emotional story for me, and I think that it found a great home in Grey Sparrow. Unfortunately, Grey Sparrow has since ceased publication.
(Incidentally, David Sedaris wrote a similar piece, “Old Faithful.” I only discovered this after the fact, while reading When You Are Engulfed In Flames.) .
