I was overseas and couldn't get back very quickly. My son spent 2 nights in the hospital and since they couldn't let his friend stay alone in the RV, ...he would take him with her to visit and then returned to the RV with him at night.On the first night after the operation, Peggy was drained mentally and decided to have a beer..She popped a can and Tyler asked if he could have one too. He added that his dad lets him drink all the time. She knew this for fact since our son often had beers there. Then she has to have a shower. Do you have some plastic and tape to keep her bandages dry?" Yes." Where is it?" The kitchen drawer beside the fridge. The tape is under the sink. The scissors are hanging up beside the sink."I went to get the tape and looked for plastic grocery bags. I stalled as long as I could. Kim said mentally and vocally, "Can you help me." You mean?" I can't stand or I'll fall."There was some silence and I wished I could read Herb's mind for the millionth time. Kim moaned. She jogged the beach eastward for more than an hour, an easy loping gait of three-minute kilometers. After a while the township was far behind her and she ran admiring the undisturbed wild shore. At the end of her jog, she spent some time practicing Tai Chi in a deserted cove, and then sprinted back to town at full power, finishing her morning exercise with an energetic swim in the warm ocean. Afterwards she chatted with several of the parents at the beach, mostly mothers with a few fathers,. .. Yeah, we’re in the same boat.”I looked at her skeptically, “Sort-of-virgin? That sounds like a story.”“Not one you’re getting.”Yeah right. I played my not even sort of virgin card and pleaded to live vicariously through her. From what I pieced together, she lost her oral V and they were about to go all the way, but he’d barely started and ended early. What a mess. She really wasn’t a V anymore, but it was so mediocre that she still feels like one. She helped me more than she could possibly.
