  1. Further insight into the various characters. Curious about Mr. Watson's decision to take Cindy. Looking forward to further development of this story!
  2. I was wondering how Greenstone was being funded...guess we know in part how it may have been. In any case, like with all things in life, there were good things that it provided to Puppy and Cindy. So much in this chapter - all I can say is it is so well crafted, as is the whole story, and I look forward to each posting! Tony
  3. Puppy is progressing nicely and quickly in adjusting to his new life. He certainly has an ideal family in which to grow. I am eager to find out Max's serious news.
  4. Each chapter just keeps getting better! And, wow, a misdiagnosis done for control purposes! Years ago, i did a two-week rotation in an adolescent psychiatric hospital and admittedly saw this behavior. Thank goodness, the hospital is now closed. I did work with two other adolescent psychiatrists in co-therapy with patients who were also students in my school and for whom I was the school contact and follow-up. These were very positive situations. I can only hope the same for Puppy!

    Meeting Steven

    Superb covering of the emotional roller coaster Puppy endured on his first day in the "real" world. His sharing with Steven, though fueled by anger, was also courageous and allowed Steven to begin to understand him a bit better. I look forward to seeing how they finally bond.
  6. The context is finally becoming clear as to the nature of the "Organization" run by G. Scary for sure! The mind altering drugs used, the memories implanted....wow! Now is the time for Zeke and Tyler to finally connect without interference by G.
  7. Forming a new family with an addition is never easy, but I do hope Puppy will be able to crack through Steven's shell and that they do form a bond. However, that will take time for sure. Additionally, his Bipolar will, of course, make itself known and felt in time. Great chapter!

    Voices

    Thanks for posting this so soon after the last chapter! I'm glad Max has gotten someone to review Puppy's medical records. I'm sure Dr. Listern has done the best he could, but Puppy is perhaps more complicated (or not) than he can see by himself. That is why there needs to be a team review periodically. I would prefer if Steven came to the hospital to see Puppy/Jensen and meet him there first. But I am eager to see the next chapter! I can't put down this story when I see a posting!

    My Dad Max

    Puppy is correct: there are some of the staff who do not know how to deal with bipolar. However, it is also true that his condition is possibly not being treated effectively at this moment. Medications don't always work as intended and, combined with the fact he is a growing teenager with wildly fluctuating hormones, it is very frustrating to try to maintain balance. Max and his family are certainly in for a wild ride!
  10. Puppy is indeed growing up. I'm excited for him to meet his father and find out the story! Cindy is truly a lifetime friend!

    Manic for Max

    What a beautiful job of not only describing, but taking the reader through a manic attack! I could feel the anxiety Puppy felt and was also comforted by Cindy! Would Puppy really know how to use a telephone if he had no one to call before? Hmm.....
  12. I especially loved the conversation between Puppy and Cindy. That would be the hardest part of living in an orphanage - the inability to form lasting relationships. Now on to the next chapter!

    Lows and Highs

    I taught in a classroom for 19 years before becoming a school counselor for the next 36 years. I have walked many kids through panic attacks (including my own son when he was younger). They are real! I am drawn to Puppy! He possesses an innocence about him that is accompanied with warmth and humor. If it were up to me, I would adopt both him and Cindy!
  14. It has been a dream of mine to either foster or adopt an older child, but due to other family responsibilities, this dream has never been realized. And now, at my age, I don't know if I would be considered or think I would have the physical stamina to keep up with the family responsibilities and give the time needed to a teen. However, I'm not totally letting the dream die. If my family circumstances should change, I might look into it. If it were up to me, however, I would adopt a "puppy" in a heartbeat!
  15. Sweet chapter....but I do want to see a confrontation between Sue and Don!

    Chapter 21-Epilogue

    I always hate to see a wonderful story end and this one doers not disappoint! You did a magnificent job with this one! Thank you for sharing your talent!!
  17. While the story has confused me from the beginning, it was compelling and I looked forward to each posting! Now I am eager to see the final resolution.

    Seems like when you're down, someone is always there to kick you even harder!

    Chapter 20

    @84Mags said what I was thinking already so eloquently. Thanks for such a great chapter!!! I just hate to see the story end.
  20. This has more turns than a coiled spring!

    Crossings

    Well done! Great advice borne from experience but given in a light yet serious method.

    A February Song

    Just getting around to reading this story (so many good ones on this site!). So well done. This chapter, in particular, capsulizes the religious journey of many gay youth, regardless of the church denomination.

    Chapter 19

    Please post later today or tomorrow! This is too exciting to have to wait until Tuesday! Great chapter again.

    Chapter 18

    So, in a basic way, I was correct in my suggestion that the lawyer was involved in the capturing of Kyle and Kim - though you definitely added a creep factor to the 100th degree. You really did this up well even if it makes my skin crawl!
