Chapter One: The Journey Begins
Please Read and review and let me know what you think.

Belinda waited nervousley wondering what she should do.She was the opening doctor on call this morning, Eric and Landon would be coming in soon.
She was hoping Eric would arrive first before Landon she thought as she waited for Eric to show up.
She paced in front of the door waiting when she saw Eric walk in through the door.
"Hello Belinda How Are things going" ? "Just fine Eric we have five patients waiting and one new referral". "Thats great Belinda".
" Maybe not so great" replied Belinda "The new referral was sent by Doctor Anderson But I think we should refer her to someone else." Why " asked Eric We never
passed on anyone before even on people who cound not pay. Landon has never turned anyone away why would he start now."


Belinda took Eric aside, " I think we should refer her to someone else because.....because". Eric saw the hesitation in her eyes, What is it Belinda whats wrong ?
Belinda took a deep breathe, "Its because she looks exactly like Jamie Sullivan not just a little, not just a lot, but exactly like her maybe an older version but Im telling you
you she looks exactly like Jamie". " Your kidding right" as Eric tried to laugh it off but the seriousness on her face told him she was not kidding.

What her name ? asked Eric. Her name is Amy Johnson replied Belinda, She has had leukemia for about a year now but its reached stage two and conventional treatment
is no longer effective or or at least marginally effective. Life expectancy is at two years unless were suceesful in helping her.


" Where is she now " ? asked Eric. "In exam room five " Belinda said. Eric seemed deep in thought as if deciding what to do. Finally he replied " Even though you,me and Landon
are equal partners and while we do have the authority to refer her to another doctor Landon will want to know why ".

Suddenly Landon walked in " Hello Belinda, Eric things running smoothly". Both Belinda and Eric remained silent both unsure of what to say. " Guys what going on, Is something wrong" ?
Belinda was the first to speak, " Hello Landon " she said as she gave him a hug." Hey man " said Eric "Landon we have new referral and I was thinking we should refer her to someone else".
"Why" asked Landon ? Eric hesitated and said " on second thought I would like to take care of this one myself. Landon looked at him an amused look on his face. " Eric you always seem to get
the prettiest patients but not this time buddy. I think I will be taking this one. What room is she in" ?
" Exam room five " said Belinda as he walked passed both of them. " Landon wait" called Belinda ' She wanted to tell him but could not find the words." It can wait " She replied.
Landon walked into his office changing from his suit to a white doctors coat then from his office to the nurses station picking up the chart for the patient in room five glancing through it
as he walked to just outside the door to exam room number five.
