The L Wing – chapter 261
“Will you let me know where she is going to be ?”
“I will ring you in the morning “
“Thanks again “
I put the phone down and wander into Bette’s office – she is on the phone. I go upstairs – Shane is in the nursery – she is sitting on the window seat holding her daughter who is fast asleep. I sit down beside her
“She is so like Carmen “
“She is – she’s a stunner “
“I was watching her earlier thinking how Ella is going to be like this in 6 months “
“Sophie was a late starter because she was so small when she was born – Ella is much more advanced “
Shane strokes Sophie’s dark hair – she kisses her brow now and again.
“I didn’t know anything could feel as perfect as holding my own daughter “ she says
“Bette says there is nothing as pure to touch as the skin of a baby “
“Your wife is wise “
“She alternates between being a jackass and being wise “
“You don’t mean it “
“Oh but I do. I love Bette more than I can tell you but she has her moments “
“I was her Chief of Staff long enough “
“She couldn’t have done it without you and Alice “
“We have had some spectacular rows “
“I have probably been the reason behind some of them “
She chuckles
As we are sitting chatting Bette comes in
“Why was I not invited to this little girls sleep over ?”
“You were on the phone as per usual “ I reply
Bette can’t help it – she goes across and looks in at Ella. She stands and looks at her for several minutes – finally she speaks
“We have two places ready to take you in – one of them is just outside New York -the other one is in California “

Wonderful as always AllyE. That decision by Shane was the most important of her life. Addiction is so very hard on the person that is in the addiction and all those on the outside looking in as friends, lover,s mates and family because at some point all of them have been enablers of some sort. Shane will have a hard time with it but it is something with a lot of hard work she can overcome. And it will be an everyday thing for the rest of her life. As long as she has the support of Carmen and her family she should be able to continue in sobriety. The counselling will do a world of good for her and she has taken the most important first step in admitting that she needs help. Have seen this from countless people over a 20 yr. period in the legal field and from law enforcement. Spent 17 yrs. doing commitments everyday God sent us. When I first started it was usually 4-5 a month, when I left it was 4-5 a day, and sometimes more. It is unbelievable. Great chapter AllyE. Hope everything is going well for you and your mother. Take care and post when you can.
great chapter on so many levels, ally! awesome.
yeah shane is going for help!:)PPS
Okay, not gonna blame anyone for the heartbreaking moments. Wonderful writing Ally.
WOW that was wonderful and awesome, love it, hope Shane will get well soon!
Hello AllyE, Long time no comment. Life just keeps interrupting my ability to comment on your magnificent writing and most excellent story-telling. I am awe struck whenever I read your emotive words. I must admit a littel tear trickled down my cheek as I read this tragic and uplifting chapter. It was so sweet to have Bette and Tina offer all the love and support they could. This is genuine friendship. I do hope Shane is now in a good place to admit her failing and start her recovery. The bottom of the barrel has been reached so now is the4 time to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and start all over again. I do think Carmen is there waiting to see how Shane deals with this. FO s Sophie’s sake I woant these two to reunite. Just so precious. Thank you so much for this wonderful adventure. Your Loyal Fan.
Amen to that Bette!!!!
Great and awesome update. Thank you!:)
Fortunately, for me, I have no experience with the addiction issue. It did touch my heart; thank you for continuing to write it fills my days.
wonderful chapter !!! I’m always so happy to see a post of this story.
