    Author Notes:

    Dana feels under the weather, and she talks to Alice. It’s not very excitng, lol

    Charlie wouldn’t hear of it, though. As soon as he saw me practically stagger through the sliding glass door, he was on his feet and making his way around Alice’s bed to get to me. “Take it easy, Ma,” he whispered as he hugged me. I thought about resisting, but I really wasn’t feeling all that great, so I let him hold me up.

    “I’m interrupting,” I mumbled after a minute or two.

    “No you’re not. I was just babbling about work and the way my station manager walks around like Uncle Howie used to. I think she laughed a couple times, but it’s a little tough to tell,” he replied.

    “Yeah. The doctor said that she’ll get some more movement back if she works at it, so hopefully it won’t always be so hard to tell.”

    “Ma, have you been sleeping?” Charlie asked, completely ignoring my comment.

    “I slept last night, and I just took a nap,” I answered honestly. “Don’t make it into a big deal, huh? I’m fine.”

    “Mother. You’re in your late sixties and you’ve been holding a bedside vigil for days now. You’re not fine, you’re completely drained. I don’t like those dark circles under your eyes…”

    “Charles. I promise, I’m okay.” I said it firmly, but he didn’t buy it. I guess I hadn’t really been expecting him to, but it still made me feel really strange to have my son checking me over like he was trying to decide whether or not to call a doctor in for me. “Would you quit it?” I asked, a little annoyed when he took a step back and started to look me over from head to toe.

    “Nope,” was his only response. He looked deep into my eyes and frowned. “Have you been having trouble with your balance?”

    “No,” I replied, and then amended that when I thought of my walk into the room. “Well, a little bit just before I came in, but that’s probably just because I wasn’t totally awake yet.”

    “Your eyes look weird, Ma. I’m not saying this to be an asshole, but you look like shit.”

    I bit back a reply, since it wouldn’t do either of us any good. Besides, I knew he was right. I didn’t know why the exhaustion had hit me so suddenly, but I was really feeling crappy and I didn’t have the energy to fight with him. “Yeah.”

    1. Woo! I’m here, sorry about the delay. I have learned that you DO NOT want to make an engineer mad…EvEr! Moving on….excellent post MT. You really nail the emotion and…other words that i cant think of right now. Every time i read one of your post i just feel absorbed into the situation and it blows my mind. Thank you so much for another amazing post.

    2. Clapping and sighing simultaneously! You deserve a round of applause for another amazing post. Again, I love the way you tell this story. I sincerely hope that the nurse was right about D recuperating in a couple of days. I am just as worried as D. You did an incredible job on A’s emotion. I totally appreciate your writing skill in making it so clear how those two were feeling. With both parents being ill, it would be most trying for Charlie & Kallie. On the light side, D guessing what A was trying to tell her was hysterical, “tell Shane that I love her?”; “tell her you don’t love her?” LMAO. I can just picture A rolling her eyes. Dumb, Dana Dumb! lol On the other hand, with sleep deprivation & the infection, she must be entering into a state of delirium. For a few second I thought the message was “Shane. phone home” as in E.T. hahaha. MT, thank you for another excellent update.

    3. Great update, MT!! Poor Dana. I hope she gets the rest she desperately needs and gets healthy. She is very lucky to have so many good friends and family to help her watch over Alice. I am so happy that Alice is showing progress in communicating. The whole “I love you” sign language thing was very well-done. I love the little touches about the kids and the differences between them and also in how they interact with their mothers. You craft a very rich story. Thanks so much!!
