    Author Notes:

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

    “I can’t see Alice, can I?” I asked, feeling horribly guilty for touching her hand without any sort of barrier between us.

    “You can, but only to say goodbye. Your son has already arranged to have a friend of yours come pick you up. We just want to wait on the lab work so you’ll know exactly what to do once you get there.”

    I shivered, hating the thought of being away from Alice for any length of time. The nurse saw me and smiled.

    “Please don’t be too upset. This is very common during vigils like this. Alice’s immune system is perfectly fine, so you haven’t done anything to hurt her. Your cold hasn’t progressed enough yet to do her any damage anyway, even if she did catch it, so you’re fine. I’m going to suggest you come in and see the doctor tomorrow afternoon if you feel up to it, after you’ve had some decent sleep. He’ll let you know where we can go from here as to Alice’s progress,” the nurse continued. I wanted to protest, but I knew she was right.

    It was a blow to my ego, that I hadn’t been able to take care of myself well enough to be there for Alice when she needed me. Still, I knew I wouldn’t be doing her any good if I was sick. I hated the thought of going home, but staying would just stress me out and make things worse for both of us. And maybe if I left and wasn’t there for her to constantly worry about, she’d recover better. I knew she was still just as exhausted as I was.

    I had to hand it to Charlie. As much as I thought he’d been overreacting to my overall tiredness, he’d done the right thing, the thing that was best for both his mother and me. I hated to admit that, even to myself, but he’d realized I was sick even when I had fought him on it. Kallie said pretty much the same thing when she came in, and after giving me a hug and a kiss on the cheek, went in to see Alice. Charlie came back into my room to give his sister some time, and he sat next to me quietly.

    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!!
