    Author Notes:

    The doctor talks. Shane talks a little. Dana and Charlie do too. Not much else happens, give me a break. It’s not even four pages.

    It took awhile for Dr. Hernandez to bring Alice up to speed on what he and I had talked about earlier. I tried to leave her side to afford her some privacy, because it seemed somehow rude to stay in the room for their discussion. That was probably stupid since I already knew what he was going to say, but it still felt weird to stay.

    Her grip on my hand tightened as I stood, though, and when I looked back at her, her eyes were pleading with me. “Do you mind if I stay?” I asked the doctor. He shook his head as if he was surprised I felt the need to ask, and sat on Alice’s other side. He looked like he wanted to take her hand, but with the IV it probably would have hurt her. He seemed to sense this and looked sort of uncomfortable. For a moment, I was reminded of my son, and it endeared the doctor to me even more.

    After a minute, he cleared his throat and started to speak. Alice just watched him, her eyes flicking back to me as she heard that she’d never speak again. She looked angry about it, but not really surprised, and it made me really sad. I felt even worse when it looked like she was trying to speak, her mouth moving but nothing intelligible coming from it. It almost made me cry, and I apologized and left the room.

    I found Shane sitting on one of the benches in the hallway when I walked to the vending machine, rubbing my eyes to make the tears go away. She saw me crying, and before I could tell her I was all right she was off the bench and hugging me. It took a little bit longer than it used to, but I appreciated it anyway. “It’ll be okay,” she said, looking helpless. I smiled sadly.

    “I know. I shouldn’t even be crying, it’s not that big a deal. Dr. Hernandez says Alice is going to be all right. She just won’t be able to talk again.”

    Shane didn’t say anything, just sighed. There really wasn’t much to say, though, so I didn’t blame her for it. “What are you doing here so early?” I asked.

    1. Loving the idea of the gang in their sixties and seventies, as well as the fact that they’ve mostly satyed connected, just like family, as opposed to the friends who come through our lives over the years. Looking forward to your next…you know the idea of Alice finding ways to communicate without a voice is something I appreciate. LOL. Looking forward to your next…the block will break and then look out!!!!

    2. Excellent, MT! It may be a little shorter than you usually post, but, it has the same great storytelling and depth of feeling. Argh. Poor Al! Hopefully once it sinks in she will be able to accept it and focus on recovering as much as she can. I am glad that everyone is starting to think ahead as to nurses and such. Love the talk with Dana and Shane on who had the older feet. You really write the friendship between everyone very well. The personal servant thing was a perfect Danish touch — I could see them having that sort of conversation. I am really looking forward to the flashback to the party. That sounds like quite a story. I hope you get past your writer’s block soon. Not only so we can enjoy more of your writing, but, for your own sanity. ;-D Thank you so much for the new chapter and I hope you post another one when you can.

    3. I can close my eyes and see these beautiful ladies in their sixty and seventies. Abeautiful grey headed Tina and Bette, Dana and Alice both greying and Shane with a little Yet all still beautiful. Alice is a fighter, she might have been knocked down but she will get back up to fight another round. thanks

    4. It great MT! I love this story 3 pages or otherwise. I love the connection that Alice and Dana have and that they’re a strong couple who just loves each other so much. I just love that Thanks for posting.
