When I saw that car hit him and saw his body bounce, I just couldn't believe my eyes." "I know, it's tough on the friends and family to witness such a horror." "So Doc, how long will he be like this?" The man pointed to the casts on the legs. "Well, the casts will be on for awhile. Then we'll start physical therapy, so he can rebuild the muscles in his legs." "I see. Is he in pain?" The doctor shook his head. "No, he's not." "Can I go see him now?" The doctor smiled. "Sure, you can go in." The doctor opened the door for the concerned man. The man walked over and bent down and started talking. "After all we've been through, I never thought I'd see you in this condition." He gently caressed the head of his friend. He looked around to see if anyone was looking. "I'll be back tomorrow to check on you." The man bent down and placed a kiss on his friend's head and wiped a tear away from his own eye. He gathered his composure and left the room. The doctor caught up with him. "Eh, Mr. Gage. I have a question for you." "Sure doc." "How old is Boot?" GOTCHA! |
