TENT IN MY HEART. NIFICANCE.

THE INABILITY TO WALK SOMEHOW LOST ITS VALT SIG-

I HAD JEN. HOW COULD I BE UNHAPPY FOR LONG?

WHEN MY MOTHER AND DAD RETURNED FOR ME, THEY FOUND A RENEWED DAUGHTER. THEY WERE GLAD, TOO, TO WELCOME JEN, BELIEVING THAT SHE HAD DONE ME TREMENDOUS GOOD. SHE HAD, BUT NOT EXACTLY IN THE WAY THEY IMAGINED. I WA LOATH TO RETURN TO THE TOWN HOUSE TO LIVE AS I HAD SINCE THE ACCIDENT. I COULDN'T HURT MY PARENTS WHO HAD BEEN SO GOOD TO ME, BUT NEITHER COULD I LIVE IN THE SAME HOUSE WITH JEN AND NOT SHOW HER MY LOVE. THAT KIND OF STRENGTH IS RESERVED FOR SAINTS, NOT SINNERS.

THERE WAS SOME PARENTAL OPPOSITION TO MY DECISION TO LIVE AWAY FROM HOME, BUT JEN, WITHOUT SAYING VERY MUCH, QUIETLY TURNED THE TIDE IN OUR FAVOR. "WE KNOW YOU'LL BE IN GOOD HANDS, DEAR," MY MOTHER SAID THE DAY WE LEFT FOR THE LITTLE APARTMENT THAT JEN HAD FOUND.

A

I'M STILL IN THOSE GOOD HANDS AND ALTHOUGH I CAN'T WALK YET, JEN IS DETERMINED THAT I SHALL, SOME DAY. SHE'S ALWAYS RIGHT BY MY SIDE, SCOLDING AND TEASING AND LOVING ME AS HARD AS I LOVE HER. SHE'S A GREAT BELIEVER IN THE PSYCHIC COMPONENT OF DISEASE, AND SOMETIMES I'M CLOSE TO BELIEVING IN IT AS WHOLEHEARTEDLY AS SHE.

AND SOMETIMES, WHEN I GET DISCOURAGED BY ALL THE HARD WORK THAT GOES ON OVER THOSE INERT LEGS, I REACH UP AND PULL JEN'S CURLY HEAD DOWN TO MINE, FOR THE PSYCHIC IMPACT OF A KISS IS THE MOST POTENT THERAPY | KNOW.
