There is a lot going on in this chapter. The dream had me going for a while. Then all of a sudden we are in Vietnam with Bill and his special forces team. But them we get left hanging with Grandma in the well. I hope she gets out okay, I like her character. A very action packed chapter.

Goodness, I hope Cathy gets help and rescues grandma from the well. It could have lots of things in that well that might be frightening too. I remember the days when we had a cistern ourselves.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Well Tootie. You started this chapter with a tragedy--turned dream, and now you build enough suspense in the dialogue to bring us to another crisis in the same chapter.
You fooled me in the beginning and left me in suspense at the end. A lot of action in this chapter. Very interesting.

How on Earth did Grandma fall into a well? That one surprises me a little too much. I grew up watching General Hospital. It was a good show and still is, although I rarely watch it. I keep up with it standing in the grocery line reading the headlines of the magazines for sale. LOL This is another good installment.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Talk about excitement, Cathy! I think you should put a health warning at the top of your chapters, 'No one with heart problems or high blood pressure can read this!' LOL! Goodness me, you do find the best part to end your chapters. I was worried about Bill in the beginning, and you, I thought, when did Bill and Cathy die?? Thankfully he was dreaming it in his concussed state. Well, you two, you'd best be almost ready to post the next part, you can't leave Grandma hanging up to her neck in water down in the well!! :)) Sandra xxx

I liked your dialogue. Very engaging. Your imagery is vivid and easy to conjure. I like that a lot about a story. I've haven't read your previous chapters so I don't have enough background on your story to comment on plot yet but it definitely seems like you know your way around a story.

I got caught up in the General Hospital and Lipton tea. I grew up in Texas and these were familiar to me. Nice touch including things in everyday life that are familiar. I don't remember ever reading about grandmas demise so I'm hoping it isn't cause she fell into the well. This is a great angle of this captivating story line. As always wishing you two nothing but luck. xoxo Kiwi

Hello Cathy & Bill,
Nice piece in continuation having smooth and captivating flow, especially in the beginning and towards the end.
The scene of 'Grandma in the well', and in 3rd Paragraph"...Speak not of yesterday's hurt and sorrow; speak only of my promise for tomorrow." are noteworthy.
Entertaining as well as Educative!

You certainly left me hanging over the cliff. Are they going to save Grandma or is she drowning in the well? You did a great job and I'm ready to read more. Shirley
