Like John, I thought this was going to turn out with a hard ending, the woman deciding she was too old to deal with it, or the risks that come with age (as you well know), but I'm glad she made the decision she did. Such hope and promise.Stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04753736809917062955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186877685534377957.post-51202942236719780002011-09-03T08:44:25.888-04:002011-09-03T08:44:25.888-04:00Loved the story Linda.

Almost afraid to hear what the technician would say, based on that hope; then the pure happy joy of the white screen. Bravo, Linda!

Much of the rest was fictionalized, but I drew on the memory of grief that welled those weeks I waited.<br /><br />John, I find your comment interesting -- I write sad and hopeless most of the time? Hmmm... must ponder that some more.<br /><br />Once again thank you for taking the time to read and comment on this story. Peace...Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110078016784294934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186877685534377957.post-17624357014114249522011-09-02T15:22:28.718-04:002011-09-02T15:22:28.718-04:00congrats doc..congrats doc..Michael Solenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01120045114297450520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186877685534377957.post-29299206589986107832011-09-02T14:35:07.408-04:002011-09-02T14:35:07.408-04:00Gorgeous.
