Another chapter that covered a lot of ground. I'm afraid Giles is not a keeper. The flow of the chapter was very natural until the break before the last seven paragraphs when it became a bit rushed or hurried.
All in all another great chapter in a compelling saga. Thanks for sharing.
The chapter covered so much, I hardly know which superlative to lob first! Robert and Jeremy had a breakthrough moment over telling Giles. Giles is a gem and they even managed to not just save Travis, but have a breakthrough moment with him too. The stars certainly do seem to be aligning!
Well done!
The human triad with the cave hands and then the bi-directional zap that cured Keiran's headache seemed to be connected to the otherworld and the discussion at the beginning of the chapter. I want more please.
This is an old one. Is it a wine goblet? Is it a really big candle stick holder? Or a couple about to kiss or is it just a black and white silhouette meant to stimulate your visual perceptive cortex?
Here's a better one in my opinion:
Thanks Krista, it was a really good one and I ate too much!
Thanks Sandi it was a great day and my daughter made me a chocolate pie.
Thanks lilansui, it was fantastic!
Tyler was repressed about his own feelings toward Isaac...and avoided the problem. Isaac could have forced the issue sooner. Neither is blameless, and they were both lucky to wander into that impromptu get together at the local hangout.
Wow, I didn't know whether to show I loved the chapter or that it made me sad, so I just gave it a thumbs up....
So sad and worrisome about Stephen...and Nan. And now I wonder if the hit-and-run was deliberate...What did Stephen find out?
So happy about the school and the expected twins. What a seesaw of emotions!
More please!
Well told about an insidious disease that seems to be affecting more and more people, especially in my generation....
My wife's sister has required nursing home care because of Alzheimer's for more than two years now. My father-in-law died from it in 2001 after a long battle of more than 10 years with the last 3 requiring nursing home care. My mother-in-law was never diagnosed but had some noticeable dementia for more than two years before she passed in 2005. My mom who lived more than 93 years had dementia the last 2-3 years as well.
The disease is particularly horrible because it robs a person of their dignity in so many ways. We've supported the Alzheimer's Association for years. Their website has some helpful resources for families dealing with the problem and also ways you can contribute.
