This chapter was wonderful and very true. Brings back memories of my late husband in surgery for cancer. All the emotions were there, the support from family, the long waits. Loved the ending.
As to the delay in posting I always feel that, when you're giving us stories to read without charge, we don't really have a right to complain if life sometimes gets in the way. I get antsy for more, but feel it isn't right to push the author when there might be things going on that I don't know about. That said, I look forward to reading whatever you post next.
