Between the sale of the house, I’d taken my mother in to see Dr. Harris. She surprised me by not fighting about it.
A few days after the house sale was finalized, Dr. Harris called.
“I’d like your mother to come in again,” he said. “There are some things we need to discuss.”
“Is it serious?”
“It is important,” he replied.
“We have an appointment with a specialist tomorrow for our mother’s condition. Please be there. I have attached the details.”
“Is it serious?”
“Why didn’t you tell us?” Eliza added.
Nick sent, “Is this really necessary?”
“Please, for once, just meet me halfway.”
A few more complaints came in, but then they reluctantly agreed. Curiosity won over.
