Shy-Diapers Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 Mary rested close with her mother, chatting a little to the best of her abilities. Link to comment
justagirl4fun Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Penny sighed. "That's what I figured," she grumbled as she pushed her bowl away and slipped out of her chair. "Mary gets everything, an' I get nothin'." Link to comment
Shy-Diapers Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 John went after his daughter and looked her in the eyes. "Honey, what does Mary get that you don't?" They always treated the girls equally, but Mary did get more attention, but that was necessary when she needed help with everything, and they didn't know if today would be the last day they ever saw her. They always got the girls equal gifts and toys, wanting to be as fair as possible. Link to comment
justagirl4fun Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 "She gets to go do stuff all the time!" Penny pointed out, referring to Mary's therapy. At the age of 4 she didn't really understand the importance of it. To her, it just looked like Mary was playing fun games. "An' when you're not home, mama never wants to do anything with me. She's always busy with Mary." Link to comment

justagirl4fun Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 "Yeah, but she still gets to do fun stuff at therapy, an' I have to sit by myself an' watch. Why can't she watch me do something?" Link to comment
Shy-Diapers Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 John sighed. "Because mommy and I don't think it's fair. Because Mary can't walk like you so she feels left out a lot because she can't do what you can." Link to comment
justagirl4fun Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 "So I'm never, ever gonna get to do anything, 'cause Mary can't?" Penny asked, feeling defeated. "I'm just gonna stay here doin' nothin' Link to comment
Shy-Diapers Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 John sighed. "No baby. Just we have to find a way to let you do things by yourself. Well work on it okay?" Link to comment
justagirl4fun Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 "Okay," Penny mumbled, sounding entirely unconvinced. She shuffled to the living room and flopped down on the couch. Link to comment
Shy-Diapers Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 John frowned. He peeked in on Mary and his wife to see how she was doing. He was relived that Mary seemed to be sleeping soundly and breathing fine. Link to comment

Shy-Diapers Posted March 4, 2017 Author Share Posted March 4, 2017 "That's good." John said, relieved Mary was doing better. He was starting to worry though, Mary's seizures had been becoming more frequent lately. He leaned over and kissed his older daughter on the forehead. "Hon do you wanna eat? I can find something for us. Penny's on the couch. She's disappointed about the lessons." Link to comment
justagirl4fun Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 "Yeah, well, she'll get used to it. Sometimes life is disappointing," Diana said with a shrug as she got up. Link to comment

justagirl4fun Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Diana followed. "There are Hot Pockets in the freezer," she suggested. "I guess I really should go grocery shopping." Link to comment
Shy-Diapers Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 "Yeah. Let's do it this weekend. I can take Mary home early if need be." John said putting some of the hot pockets in the microwave. Link to comment
justagirl4fun Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 "Okay, sounds good," Diana agreed as she filled two glasses with ice and Coke. Link to comment
