"then why don't you give him some of yours?" my wife countered back.
"in case you weren't listening I already have. I've given him plenty. And you don't think about kate as a whole person you thik about her and esse. Like when is kate giving jesse more blood. Or bone marrow. It's not oh when am I going to help kate w/ her art or oh I wonder how kate's day was."
"oh and it's her fault he's sick?" sara said standing almost spilling her coffee when she lifted it.
"no it's not that's not what i'm saying."
"oh well I think it is. Oh and you do?"
"i do um what?" I asked not following looking up at her.
"think about her as a whole person."
oh.
"oh. yes actually I do."
"oh. So he met someone, at the hospital?" sara asked quieting.
"yeah shannon. Seems nice she's around his age. She, gave him her #."
"wow," sara said pleased and surprised.
"she has AML also. And she's a leo. She's cute...older than him. Loves kids met anna."
"wow sounds like you found out quite a bit."
"yes. Yes I did."
"so how was kate's day?" sara asked surprising me.
"what?" I asked: "go ask her yourself. Actually wait no she's at jason's w/ trixie so..."
"trixie. Oh god no. that's actually the case i'm working on. Don't tell them."
"i won't. And I thought lawyers weren't allowed to talk about their cases."
"well actually technically we're not. but also …... we're the ones who can change the laws so. Also. I can't hide anything from you."
oh. that's right.
