I've not been following the story. This is a good read. I can identify with the characters. The dialogue is good. It has a nice flow.

Hello Barb,

What a surprise day in the court room

Great chapter

Thank you for the kind review. I only have two twists left. I do have to figure a way to get Troy and Anna together. With her abuse I need to keep it simple and slow, but people are pushing for the romance. To me that's not realistic.

Barb pleas don't rush you story it's like life it takes time-- nothing good happens all at once

Comment from Sweet Anita
I enjoyed this chapter. The dialogue and Anna's reaction to hearing about Troy's Hepatitis B seemed very realistic. I can imagine how she might have felt. I hope that Anna accepts Troy's explanation. That is quite a stigma he has to carry, through no fault of his own. Great job of writing, Barbara.

Hi, barbara. This is an exciting chapter. The hepatitis infection is an unexpected twist. It seems that Anna's enemies are doing all they can to see that she loses custody of her son. This portion seemed to be handled very realistically and the characters' reactions were in keeping with what the reader knows about them. Good job. judi

Comment from patsolstad
This chapter is quite well written. I found some things you may want to change. I don't understand why Anna is asking 'what?' at the beginning. Also, perhaps you will want to consider writing, '...my chambers. Now!' In the paragraph beginning with 'Tears streamed...' I believe you meant to type 'touched.' There should be a comma between 'missing' and 'too.' 'Life-threatening' and 'blood-borne' should both be hyphenated. You probably intended to write 'three months' rather than 'three month.' Nice writing...

I have already fixed months. As for blood borne the only place it's hyphenated is in wikipedia. The CDC has it written the way I chose to write it and I trust the CDC a little more than wikipedia. If you had read the previous chapter you would understand Anna questioning What? The rest I will take care of right now.

Thanks for correcting me. As I looked it up, I also found it written as one word--bloodborne. I always like to learn new things on this site. Thanks again!

Good morning Barbara. Another good chapter that's been well edited. Characters and dialogue still consistent and easy to follow. Looking for the next one

This was a awful thing to be brought out in court. It has nothing to do with the trial. Her ex-husband and his parents are evil people. It seems they are out to destroy everyone they come in contact with. Good story, Barbara.

Comment from rwilliam
VERY good chapter. I really enjoyed the drama in this chapter. You did a wonderful job of creating emotion and drawing me into it! :-)
I'm doing fine. I get tired once in a while when I shouldn't. ~ Explain this further, why does he get tired when he shouldn't? As a reader I know nothing about this disease so more info would be helpful. It leaves me wondering why he shouldn't be tired?
I have doctor visits every three month ~ Typo...month(s)
Great work. Keep it going! :p

I have fixed the typo. I will see what I can do about the the tiredness. I was afraid to over power my readers with too much information and making the chapter boring. I appreciate the input.
-
I understand that worry. I go there also. It doesn't have to be a lot of explaining. For example: I get a little more tired than I should.. Or I get a little more tired and run down than the doctors would like. Something like that explains it better.
-
I like your second idea. I will use it. thank you.

I will fix those typos. No matter how often I read and edit, I still make mistakes.
