Sweetheart goes northeast to accompany parent getting medical procedure (5)
I believe the answer is:
enema
'medical procedure' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'sweetheart goes northeast to accompany parent' is the wordplay.
'sweetheart goes' becomes 'e' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'northeast' becomes 'NE' (abbreviation).
'to accompany' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'parent' becomes 'ma' (ma can mean mum or mother).
'e'+'ne'+'ma'='ENEMA'
'getting' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for enema that I've seen before include "In the end medical procedure" , "Medical liquid introduced anally" , "Liquid injection given as a laxative" , "Rectal medicine" , "Suppository" .)
