Dana could see love and compassion in Alice’s eyes.

“Alice why did you do this?”

“Well because I wanted to show you no matter what challenges come our way we can tackle them together one step at a time.”

“Thank you Al. Thank you so much. I’m just so confused as to where to even start.”

“It’s okay baby there really is no great place to start. Well let’s start with getting Ethan home and healthy and then we will tackle something else. But I do think you should at least call your mom.”

“Ehh…”

“Dana even if you just call and tell her that Ethan is here.”

“Do you think she really wants to know?”

“I’m not sure but she’s trying to make amends and that’s a start.”

“What if she wants to see him?”

“Then let her, you don’t have to be here if you don’t want to.”

“Well can I call her later?”

“Sure babe, if you want we can tell her together.”

“I would like that.”

“Me too.”

Just then there was a knock on the door and Lenore walked in.

“Sound the trumpets and let the world know NANA IS HERE!”

“Who the hell are you and what have you done with Lenore Pieszecki.”

“Now Alice that is no way for a new mother to be speaking.”

“And Nana what’s with that.”

“I refuse to be called grandma it makes me feel old, which I’m not.”

“I’m just a bit confused; you were the woman who said you wanted nothing to do with my baby.”

“Yes that was me, but I have done some thinking and I’m not getting any younger and neither are you this is my first grand baby I should be excited not shunning the little guy out.”

Lenore walked over to her daughter and gave her a hug.

“Don’t think I don’t see you over there in the corning Dana, you always were so shy. Come here give me a hug.”

Dana looked over at Alice with a puzzled look. Alice shrugged her shoulders in response which caused Dana attempt to get up to give Lenore a hug.

“Goodness Dana what happened to you here let me come to you.”

Lenore went over to Dana and gave her a hug. Both Alice and Dana were shocked at how personable Lenore was being.
