    Lest I Forget (23)

    “That’s fine,” Jenny replied, and Shane nodded. Helena shrugged and led us all down the hall to the neonatal unit.

    She was sleeping when we got there, in pretty much the same position she’d been in when we’d left the night before. Helena excused herself to go speak to the nurses inside, and we stood there watching her for a few seconds before we remembered that Shane and Jenny were there with us.

    “Sorry!” I whispered, and wondered why I felt the need to whisper seeing as there was a wall between us and the infants. They all laughed at me, and they laughed harder when I pointed the baby out to them.

    “Dana, you both went to stand right in front of her incubator and gawked at her. If it was another baby, I’d feel bad for it,” Shane teased us. I flipped her off and went back to staring into the incubator.

    “She’s really beautiful,” Jenny said from beside me. I grinned, because she was right. I couldn’t believe how beautiful the baby was, even if she was too tiny for her features to really look like anything distinctive yet. She had that anonymous cuteness that all newborns do, and I don’t think I’d ever seen anything prettier than she was.

    Helena came back into the hall a few minutes later. We were standing in a compact little group with our faces practically pressed against the window, and she laughed at us. “You remind me of myself when Wilson was born,” she said, a little sadly. Without really thinking about it, I turned around and hugged her. Alice did the same as soon as I stepped away, and Helena laughed. “Thank you. You’re all set to go in; the nurses will tell you what you need to know. I’m going to step outside for a bit to call the Center and ask them to get the paperwork ready for you, if that’s all right.”

    We all nodded, and Alice and I looked at each other nervously before we walked in. The atmosphere immediately changed, and we tried to be as silent as possible so as not to disturb the babies. One of the nurses walked over to us and said hello in a quiet voice, and led us over to the incubator.

    1. MaGoose is right on. Thank you very much for posting another wonderful chapter so quickly. Even at the state A was in, she was still adorable. I love how the family were often together for each other. Shane naming Kallie was perfect. Obviously Kallie was brought up with lots of love and care by A & D. I am especially pleased that D finally revealed her enthusiasm of having Kallie in their lives. I was not 100% sure from the last post. Excellent as always. Looking forward to more.

    2. Wow just got caught up on your last post and here you are :D..After following how their friendship has been for forty odd years, find it fitting that Shane named Kallie. Nice reversal with Al getting nervous while Dana gets more excited…excellent chapter.

    3. You really are on a roll with this story. Awwwwwwwww… Love it!!! This chapter made me feel so warm and gooey inside. Again — so glad Dana continues to do well and that Alice is having some progress, too. I think they both know she will never be the same, but, they seem to be accepting what she will be able to do and preparing for what she won’t. And I am sure there will be good days and bad days but I do like the positive note they have going now. The connection between Alice/Dane and Kallie is beautiful. I think they are all lucky to have found each other. I am sure it will not be easy, but, they seem to know what they are in for. And, once again, love the friendships here with Shane and Jenny wanting to see the baby. The naming thing was perfect. I was wondering about “Kallie” — it is not a conventional name. It was very interesting that Alice wanted the middle name to reflect her mother. Wonderful update, MT!! Thank you so much!!

    4. long time no write! I just wanted to pop out and let you know that i’m still your staunch supporter here and that i’m thrilled about this happy danish moment.Yay, i love it when you feel you can’t be any happier. Now, could you bring that to the “present” and make Alice sing or something? too soon? humming then? Anyway,thanks for the chap, you rock MT!
