Chapter 4- Julie
/\/\/\
Lisa sat at the breakfast table
with out saying a word to Jack or any one else. The breakfast was surprisingly quite
with a strange silence when Lisa's fork clattered to the table. Lisa's bandaged
hand grabbed her good one, but they where both partly num. Lisa gasped, "It's
back." She whispered.
"Lisa. What's wrong?" Jack asked
"Nothing. I am fine."
Mallory who was for some reason
only she could explain was eating with them looked at Jack. "I could have sworn
she said 'it's back' which is strange-"
"Mallory." Jack warned her.
Lisa stood up and walked out
side tears running down her cheeks burning the cuts on her face. She walked
down to the lake and sat down knowing Jack was right behind her. "I cant do
this again." She whispered quietly to her self.
Jack sat down next to her. "Tell
me when your ready."
Lisa said for a while before she
started talking. "I had a track accident a long time ago. The doctors said I
would never walk again but I worked so hard and I proved them wrong. But after
that I suffered what was called Paresthesia in the lower limbs it can be in the
hands or feet and is normally temporary. It is ether a Burning pain like
someone put an iron on your hand, a sharp pain and that feels like someone
stuck a thousand needles in to your arm, the best one should be the one when
they just go numb but that is the one I hate the most. I would rather hurt
because I can feel it than go num and feel paralyzed."
Jack wasn't shore what to say.
"I won't have you diagnosing your self. You are going to the doctor inHudson today."
"Ok." Lisa wrapped her arms
around Jack. "I am sorry for every thing."
"No more secrets OK."
Lisa nodded.

"I have some errands do you just
want to walk around?" Jack asked Lisa.
"Yea. I am going to walk down
and find out what that big building has been built for. Nothing Has been built
that big in Hudson EVER!" Lisa smiled and walked to the edge of town and cut
through the grass to the new building several cars where parked out side of it.
She opened the doors and walked in expecting to find a office building but
instead there where apparatuses with one girl walking the room. The sign on the
wall read Hudson Elite Gymnastics . Lisa could see Cassie standing near the
uneven bars.
The red headed girl in a tank
top and shorts looked at Cassie. "Can you spot me mom I want to test the bars
before the girls start using them after all I am there coach I don't want them to get hurt on the first
day I coach them."
Lisa took a breath the other sign
read 'Coached by Julie Nelson.' Lisa watched her daughter fly though the air
and then land on the mat. "Julie." Was all she could say.
