A taxi brought me to the children's hospital and I found Mr. Surbert's office with no problem. I further explained my feelings of why I was donating some of my time.

Most children were recovering, partly due to the help they were given but partly also the body's own repair mechanism. In four cases I pointed out how the diagnosis was incorrect and what was really causing the problem. It most cases this was...

Barely had Peter arrived home when the lift arrived at his door. ‘God, you look terrible. Out on the tiles all night, eh?’ Bob thrust his cheery face into...

It was hard for me to keep going. I loved Amber and Alex, and both of them accepted me as their parent, but it was not the same without Missy. That first weekend alone, Amber and Alex wanted to go to the park. At first I wanted to refuse, but the hope and love in Amber's eyes softened my heart. I ended up mostly sitting on a bench watching Amber and Alex play in the sandbox of the playground. It was helpful though, and the happy shouts and cries of the children brought a smile to my face for...

Parts one and two are intended to set the stage and I hope that I am not boring the reader by taking too long to get on with the romance part of the story. A...

THERE WAS SO MUCH catching up to do. I hadn’t seen my folks since August. My life was focused on my project and rebuilding my relationship with Kate. Mom proclaimed that I was still too thin, and put a huge piece of hot Dutch apple pie in front of me. With ice cream. “Okay,” Lissa said after Melody had poked her in the ribs for the thirtieth or so time. “Everybody. My wife wants to announce the worst kept secret of the year.” She stuck her tongue out. Melody laughed and kissed her. She stood...

Lil and I closed up the house for a month after Lexi graduated and we helped her move to Bloomington. Casa del Fuego was in their new home which meant the upper level of the barn was occupied by dormitories and the sewing room. They had to do some schedule shifting because they couldn’t have sewing machines running at the same time they were filming in the studio below. We left them to figure out their systems and went to Italy. Liliana’s mother was still alive, though her father had passed...

Mother's Day by circe ([email protected]) Emma's brow was furrowed in concentration as she examined her work. It was good, she concluded, but missing something. She put down her favorite pink crayon and reached for the yellow: Mommy's hair needed to be prettier. The little girl deliberately drew golden lines from the top of her Mommy's head to her shoulders. That was better. "That's very good Emma," Miss Galbraith said, kneeling beside the tiny desk and smiling. The girl Emma...

Dog-Day Afternoon By Beverly Taff CHAPTER 1 I must confess that I'd always felt I was a woman locked up in a man's body. I know this usually sounds tedious to those who have made the transition. The expression has become a trite simplification used by the media to describe what is really a desperately difficult rite of passage. Every one of those brave individuals, who starts the journey and finally makes it through the dark days of transition, has their own story of despair...

Meanwhile Roberta Kramer had been wracking her brain trying to think of something else she could try. By now it was even starting to penetrate her head that she was losing the case. When the children were all dressed and standing around their teacher, she said, "We still haven't seen Mrs. Conroy teach. The Department is now willing to concede that she does have above-average pupils — in intelligence, at least. But can she teach? Why can't she demonstrate, Your Honor?" As soon as the...

The call interrupted my thoughts on my wife and first daughter's relationship. "Hello." "David!" It had been a while since I heard from Helen. The new baby kept her up most nights. "How are you?" "The baby slept through the night," she said, "and the scale says I lost the last two pounds I wanted." "Good for you." "If you come down to the school, it could be good for you too." I laughed and adjusted, remembering how Helen looked with Brittany holding the wedding dress up...

Lee and Gabriela slept soundly too, with Reed and Jessie happy that their kids were acting like siblings more and more as time wore on. They would have fights eventually, but at least they had a good start before then. Ryan was actually the last to go to sleep. He kept to himself during the puppies' introductions and tried to...

The seniors knew this was the big moment, for many borderline yet still academically gifted students this was the one that would decide who went to college and who had to seek employment.

Andy took a deep breath as he stepped through the front door of the imposing building. He'd never before done anything even remotely like he was about to, and didn't mind admitting to himself how nervous he was, even if he tried his best not to show it as he approached the reception desk. "Can I help you?" the receptionist- a slender woman in her early twenties- asked. "Hi," Andy replied. "I'm- I'm Andrew Moore, I'm here for the interview today?" "Okay," the receptionist replied....

I am also to answer any questions you may have as well as provide any guidance that I feel is relevant.” The senior Marine NCO addressed the Royal children as though he was giving a...

A sad, depressed and bittersweet story. Disclaimer: All though inspired by a real story, this is fiction. It is a story-taking place in a horrible society where money and money only makes the world going round. Disgusting events according to Danish standard are described and I would wish that we could save the world back from Denmark, so people did not need to go trough such a life, but we can only watch the unjust to happen. The solution has to come from the government on the Philippines....

Vicky... The phone was ringing. Again. I had shut the ringer off on the phone by my bed but the one on the living room kept up that annoying bleep-bleep- bleep. Why couldn't phones go ding-a-ling like they used to? Why didn't the air conditioner drown out the foolish thing? I just plain didn't care enough to pick up the receiver. That would mean rolling over in bed and I didn't want to move. Eventually the thing stopped nagging me but sleep won't come. Its too bright...

"Quite a party that one Roger. But then so was the wedding reception wasn't it.?" Roger looked up and smiled, relieved to see his business partner and best friend standing at the doorway to the lounge with his defacto wife Peggy Simpson and their partner and joint mother of their children, Katie Mosman. "Well it's about time you turned up Richard," said Roger as he stood up and greeted his long time partner with a handshake and a welcoming hug. "Shame you missed out on the...

I sat at the kids table, sipping punch from an impossibly small cup when Pipsy the Clown entered. Her painted green smile hung from ear to ear and a small rubber ball clung for life at the tip of her nose.“Hello everyone! I'm Pipsy the clown!”The children roared in excitement, much the way children do after fortyfive minutes of sugar cookies. But then as Pipsy spoke, their wild electric energy suddenly quelled to silent agog. Pipsy was probably in her mid forties. She wore a red frizzy wig...

The weather was starting to cool off and I had not been to Santa Fe for a while, so I thought that I'd drop in on Saul Jakobs and Doloros before it got cold enough up there to be uncomfortable. Also, I planned to check up on Ruby and friends to make sure that they were doing well. I decided to take it easy on myself and my horse, this time. I put my horse in a likely looking livery stable and paid for two weeks of care in advance. I told the proprietor that I didn't know exactly how long I...

This is not about sex, although sex surely played a (wonderfully) big part. It is also not about regrets, since there is too much to cherish, in spite of the aching loss. It is about remembering. Four years later, and I can still picture every beautiful thing that I loved about her. The touch of her beautiful upturned nose on my cheek. The taste of her soft luscious lips on mine, and the tip of her tongue caressing mine. Her eyes – ohhh, her gorgeous cat’s-eyes which often stayed open to let...

I followed the sexy maid into Helen's suite. Helen lounged in the nude with four of her executive wife friends. Her cocky air put me on the defensive. I countered by a show of bravado, stepping forward and saying, "Helen, you could have at least warned us as to the nature of this retreat. I hardly think this is a fitting place to bring young childr..." Helen silenced me with a raised hand then said, "You shut up and listen." I gulped. "I have waited a long time to get you up here.

Throughout the greater part of the day we mingled among the town’s folk. After the evening’s feast I was told our stroll had more than reassured the guest workers and recent arrivals, and they were celebrating and congratulating themselves at their smart choice to move here. I didn’t really understand how a crowd’s mood could swing so broadly from fatal resignation over one calamity and then to sweeping happiness. Yet, hope was the fire that fed their emotions, even when a brief squall dumped...
