This is too sad. I worked on a unit in a psych/substance abuse hospital. I saw many incidences of this very behavior: "Then there are those, on their self-made road to destruction, trying to get syringes for their "grandma" who left her diabetic supplies at home. " A little angel with bells on, came your way, to light your darkness. "She's wearing a necklace with some small silver jingle bells on it." A poignant story.

This is a nice uplifting story. I think you character participating in the Christmas, the little girl with Downs and the small lady will go over well with the FanStory readers. That is brought up your mood makes for a happy ending too.

Good entry.

That was a well written story. You described the customers who come to your pharmacy with wit and depth. I can imagine, there are all kinds of folks who can stop a pharmacy, many with a desire to get their "supplies", and make it sound innocent.

I am glad Eloise dispersed your bad mood and filled you with the spirit of Christmas.

Great imagery and visuals. Thanks for sharing this story, I enjoyed it.

A very moving piece. We all know that children often lift our mood. As do pets and all living things that still have simplicity. The story is told with warm words and feels comfortable. The images are strong. The piece stays on point and isn't padded.

Thanks for a good read.

This started out so sad, dark, and dreary. Then you hit a sweet and cute homerun with the ending. This was like the Twister roller coaster at Marriotts. Highs and lows and all smiles when you get off the ride.

This is a very well-written piece of work Thank you for sharing.
