I think this is another great chapter you have written and that you made an accurate depiction of what it's like waiting for a loved one. I'm anxious to read the next chapter like always!

Dear Barbara,
This had a very realistic feel and portrayed the gamut of emotions suffered by loved ones in a waiting room. Very cleanly and effectively written. Great job--Ted

Hello Barb Tell your hubby Brian I like his sketch.
Now you have me worried about Anna ( code blue in the recovery room)
I could feel the tension if Anna was going to be alright and seems to be a lot of concern for Micheal

OMG - I hope Anna hasn't had a turn for the worse..
poor Troy is suffering on her behalf also.
a tense chapter, Barbara.

She (has)been through

[Troy](He) stood and threw - as you've mentioned Troy and reader knows whom your talking about, might I suggest you change it to "He"

"You know.(")He paused

bastard beat his mom to death - death doesn't seem right since not true... might you consider... almost to death

settled into (our) own little world

At first(,) it took time

Margaret

    I will make those changes, thank you for your eagle eye. Troy watched his stepfather beat his mother to death, that's what I was refering too.

    Not a problem. I may not have made it clear. I will recheck it.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is a much calmer piece than the last, but it does what it needs to do in bridging between the tension of the last piece and seeing how things will advance. The ending is alarming. It could be anyone in recovery but you assume it is Anna.

This is moving along so well, Barbara. You really have the readers all involved in what's happening to Anna. I like the way you handled Troy's inner dialogue. You show very realistically how families and loved ones react when someone has to undergo serious surgery. It's sad to hear about the plans for Michael should Anna not pull through. Hope the cohorts get's what's coming to them. A very suspenseful ending. I'll be waiting to see how Anna gets along. judi

I hope it's not Anna. Guess I'll have to wait and see. This is another great, edge-of-your-seat, chapter. I look forward to the next one.

You put very good imagery in your writing. That is essential in writing a good story line. This was another very good chapter in your ongoing story. I enjoyed partaking of it... John

    I have started a couple of novels. but they take so much time away from my poetic avenues...
reply by the author on 29-Apr-2012
    very true, writing a novel does take time.

Nice hook. I am assuming it is for someone else, not Anna. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words making for an excellent read.
