I hope to know a few writers of short stories like one I will start below who might wish to share and comment on each others’ stories. Send a note to me in Australia. Cheers.
Kate sees a man sitting between the handrails above the steps into Mrs Bunton’s pool. She – the owner of the villa – is swimming toward him from the opposite side. The pool’s interior water-lights are set low, and, as Kate’s angle of view is poor, she isn’t certain if he is wearing a bathing suit. Since coming to California she learned swimming naked is not unusual, but she is more curious about who he might be.
Sandy-haired and lean, he looks like the pharmacist, Mrs Bunton’s gay friend. But Tony, from a distance, looks the same. Tony has been up-grading the villa’s electrical system. This man, perhaps forties, looks he could be either.
Curious, yes, but Kate is not surprised if he is naked. It would be unthinkable, however, for Mrs Bunton to swim without her sturdy, one-piece, faded-from use, light-brown swimwear.
Before Kate left, driving to Portand, Mrs Bunton, had said, the tone cheerful, “I remember those vacation times. No classes. Time to forget papers and exams. So have a good time. I won’t be back until Sunday either. Maybe late. I’m going,” she sighs for effect “to a boring bankers’ conference in Los Vegas. Bye Kate.”
No one was to be at the villa this weekend.
From Kansas – her college-friends’ affectionately call her ‘Katy-Kansas’ – saves on room-costs by gardening at the villa. Her room is at the opposite end from the sumptuous master suite.
Divorced, years ago, Clara Bunton, is still thought of and addressed as ‘Mrs Bunton.’ Until Kate got to know her better, she seemed formal, almost stern. She is a large woman. Perhaps a little overweight, but her large frame permits a brisk walk. She carries and dresses herself well, knows never to wear jeans, nor heels. In her mid-forties, she commands respect.
At half-past nine, Friday, when Kate drove her Toyota into the parking area, she was surprised to see Mrs Bunton’s Mercedes-Benz, but thought, she must have gone to Los Vegas with another banker, so it was a second surprise to see her swimming in the pool.
It rained continually in Portland so Kate decided her time was better-spent getting a head-start on the new term. She is in a demanding, pre-nursing program at Napa Valley College. After eight hours of driving, the first three in the rain, she gratefully drops her travel bag on the floor of her room and slips into a two-piece bathing suit. About ten o’clock, bare-foot, she takes the stone trail toward the swimming pool, thinking a few laps will relax her and she will sleep better.
Not wanting to intrude on Mrs Bunton, but curious about the man, Kate – who knows the grounds well – steps off the downward trail unto a dirt path leading up and right. A better viewing angle. She leans against an Elm and – as her father taught her – she curls the fingers of her right hand to make a ‘telescope.’
Closing her left eye she peers through her ‘telescope.’ Still unable to decide if it is Tony or the pharmacist, she does see – no surprise – he is naked. He is sitting upright, arms wrapped around the hand-rails. Legs hang loose over the edge, casually spread. Since the light is coming from below, Kate cannot see his penis. She squints.
Kate entertains a probability. Most likely Tony. The pool had been drained and he changed the lights from a modern cool-blue to soft amber. Yes, she concludes, Mrs Bunton invited him so he could see the results of his handiwork at night. That bankers’ meeting must have been particularly boring.
Kate sees the new lights cast a warmer, more-inviting glow. Tony also fixed the electrical system controlling the Jacuzzi that is located left of her, up the hillside, on the patio. For a moment, she thought, since the Jacuzzi is warm….
Deciding against that, she watches Mrs Bunton’s strong strokes. She competed in college. She has the broad shoulders of a swimmer. She slows as she approaches the steps.
Since the view is wider without the curled fingers, Kate watches as the swimmer halts and stands facing the guy, who draws his thighs together…..

Fundraising Ideas… He Still Needs $70,000?

Alex was born in December, 1988.
He spent the first week of his life in the neonatal intensive care unit at Rush Presbyterian St. Luke’s Hospital in Chicago. After many tests and procedures he was diagnosed with a neurogenic bladder, requiring catherization around the clock for the first 2 ½ years of his life. He continued to have problems and it was apparent that his intestinal motility was not normal. He was properly diagnosed at 3 years of age with chronic idiopathic intestinal pseudo-obstruction. At that time he required his first central line, which was surgically placed into the main artery in his chest. This was done to give him Total Parental Nutrition (TPN) to intravenously sustain his nutrition, calories, and fat to survive. His digestive system could not tolerate and absorb the food he ate by mouth. Alex had a total of 5 central lines placed in his chest from 1991 to 2001.
In July of 2001, Alex saw a new doctor, Dr. Colin Rudolph, in Milwaukee at Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin. Alex was in such poor health and had major central line access site issues. He was literally wasting away.
In August of 2001, at Dr Rudolph’s suggestion, Alex had a jejunostomy tube (J-tube) placed in his jejunum for nocturnal formula feeds and a gastrostomy tube (G-tube) placed in his stomach for drainage. This worked well for Alex, it was a more natural way for his body to digest the formula, and much easier on his liver than the TPN. He was able to maintain his nutrition with just his J tubes and was thrilled to get rid of his central line. This new feeding procedure gave Alex a more normal life as a teenager.
Despite his health issues, and frequent absences from school, Alex was able to play on the Glenn Westlake Middle School 7th and 8th grade volleyball teams. He also made the honor roll. In high school at Glenbard East, he took advanced classes, and continued to play volleyball. During Alex’s junior year the Varsity team took 3rd in the Illinois State Finals, and Alex was an intricate part of the team. Alex graduated from Glenbard East High School in 2007. Currently, he’s a part-time student at the College of DuPage. His career goal is to become a Pharmacist.
Over the past 7 years Alex’s health has been complicated with many procedures and surgeries as a result of adhesions and large bowel volvuli. He’s had approximately 80% of his bowel removed, and was eventually required to have an ileostomy placed in July of 2007. His intestinal motility has worsened and he now requires a groin central line for TPN nutrition. Alex is only able to tolerate limited amounts of oral food at this time.
Through out his life, Alex has had over 17 major surgeries, and way too many hospital stays to count. If not for Dr. Rudolph, and Alex’s team of doctors and nurses at Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, he would not be here today. It was Dr. Rudolph who referred Alex and his family to Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center in Seattle, Washington, in November of 2007, for an evaluation of a small bowel transplant. The recommendation was that Alex would benefit from an intestinal transplant. His intestinal failure is irreversible and his central line access sites are extremely limited.
Alex is as active as his body will allow him to be. He deals with what life has dealt him with determination, perseverance, and with what seems like an unending supply of inner strength.
When asked about his life, Alex says: “It hasn’t always been easy but, I wouldn’t change a thing. This has made me who I am today.”

How To Become A Nurse, Online?

Filed in The Category Online Nursing Schools

Hello there, I was just wondering if it was possible that I take courses online to become a registered nurse. I’ve come across some online colleges, such as, Walden University? Apparently you can take courses or something to become a nurse, however, I’m not really sure how it works. If someone could explain that would be great! I really need some help because online courses would really help me out a great deal.
Also, I know I’m probably going to have to meet somewhere or something to practice “hands-on” things for nursing, obviously.
& please, no negative comments, or telling me that I shouldn’t try online courses.
I just need facts. 10 points to best answer!
Thanks!! [:

Why When You Obtain A Bachelor’s Degree….?

Filed in The Category Florida Nursing Schools

And try to go back to school for a lower degree, the only financial aid you are offered is loans? I just got my Bachelors degree and wanted to go back to get my A.A. in nursing. I chose A.A. because my university is doing budget cuts. Anyway, I contacted the financial aid office at the community college to apply and was told that because I have a Bachelor’s degree, I will only get offered loans and no grants. I didn’t believe her, so I went and asked for a 2nd opinion and sure enough I got the same answer. That is a retarded policy. Why since I have a Bachelor’s degree and want to go back for a totally different degree I can only get loans? Why can’t I get grants? Is this everywhere or just Florida?
