This is beautiful peice, Molly. It strikes me in a way I haven't felt in a very long time. It isn't that it's just good writing; there's something different here. The way the boy is portrayed to me is well done, especially for such a limited amount of words. The mental images I have right now are breathtaking.
Thanks for the complements Todd, it means a lot to me that you enjoy my writing. I dont know where this peice of writing came from, i just seemed to vomit through my fingers and it happened to come out. Re-reading it, I agree with you, I like it and the images it subtly hints at are pretty good ones, ones to think about. My favorite thing that I did without realizing it is that the second the doctor is out of the room with the boy, she is no longer talking in second person, it's not "the damage that you did" it's " that damage that HE did" I didnt realize that until now. Thanks again Todd. I miss you.
