What a sad, sad life the poor
Grandmother lived... and now,
to be amongst her family must
be a Godsend... and yet she has
surgery to face.
A couple of minor things...

Hi Smurph,
I continue to feel sorry for James as he has more on this plate than anyone so young would have to endure. However, he is brave and intelligent and his family depends on him. I am glad James introduced Angela to grandmother and her telling about Marie Anne didn't upset her as much as James thought it would. She is proud of her new hair cut isn't she! Well done....blessings, chey

In so many ways Alfina is just a grown up child.

Along with Angela's attitude, I found it heartwarming that the simple haircut could give such joy to the emotionally impoverished Grandmother. -Joan

Feeling good about yourself is the first step toward healing. I am so pleased you enjoyed this chapter.
Comment from RebelRose
It is good that Grandmother has a female friend to bond with and learn from. It is so sad that she doesn't even know who God is; hidden from society and reality the way she was. Great chapter.

I like that despite being so different they really have a lot in common. Glad you liked this one.

This one dragged a bit but still held my attention. Some very good dialog and the handling of grandmother pretty well done. Am enjoying this story and as I have said I think it is better written that "A Leaf...." Keep at it.

Thanks. I know this one is a bit slow but they all can't be dramatic...the reader would get worn out.

Hell, I enjoyed it slow or not
Comment from Janie King
Well, that went better than one would think..thank God the girls grandmother understood this woman had nothing to do with the death of Marie Anne. Good chapter..I'm anxious to move on. God bless.

They make quite a pair, don't they. Both strong women in their own different ways.

Hi, Sasha, this time your chapter is quite light and easier to follow...:) I'm glad Angela and Alfina become friendly so quickly. Thanks for your author notes, I guess some other forgetful readers like me will find them useful.

it looks like Evil Eddy had declared war on your author's nots. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very interesting read.

Wow! What a great story!! This is the first chapter I am reading, and it does not even matter. It is very good. Of course, there are details I need, will have to go back as soon as I can, but this is very good. I love it. Poor Grandmother!!!! What a shame. Her son is a serial killer. Interesting. Very interesting and completely pulling the reader right into the story.

I am thrilled you like this, especially without any real background. For what it's worth, it is a fast read and you shouldn't have much trouble catching up.

Great! Looking forward to it. I am intrigued!

Don't worry about reviewing each chapter. Most are only worth 2 cents now anyway.

Oh, no. I love telling people how their work made me feel. I review things all the time that are just 2 cents. Any other way would not be fair.
