Hi Bev,

I always enjoy reading your chapters. Very descriptive and moving, without a lot of useless, unneeded details.

Hugs,
Lois

Derek observed a frail, elderly woman with a wad of kleenex (Kleenex is a brand name, so it needs to be capitalized; or use 'tissues')

there's a visitor limit in cardiac intensive care (Cardiac Intensive Care).

"Would you like me to call you when Mr. Esner's (Eisner's?) surgeon gets here?" she offered.

    Hi, Lois. Thanks so much for catching those spaggies. I've revised a couple of times based on great reviews - like yours - and got a little sloppy. Thanks for keeping me in line, my friend. Hugs, Bev

I loved this chapter. It was the first I've read of your book and now I'm going to have to go back and start at the beginning to catch the whole story. I liked the dialogue and short descriptions you gave, it made it easy to paint the scene in my mind.

Hmm. Isn't this an interesting development. Especially at the end. One cannot help but wonder what this will lead to.

Thanks for sharing this. No spags where found. JW

This post is very good. You are moving the plot along at a good rate. I like the way you had the nurse make sure the detective was suppoosed to be there. It was realistic.

Just surfing when I found this, but I was impressed by your tight, succinct writing. Your description of each characters actions brought them to life, a welcome change from so many I have read here on FS who insist on telling rather than showing. Good story and lively dialogue. Saw only one small spag, "laughing his ass of(off).
Great writing, irish

I'd actually like to thank you for the large type, failing eyes love it!!!
Good, good chapter! Not the heart stopping scarey dareys, but good solid story.... and who IS the stranger with the tattoo? Hmmm, we'll have to wait and see. You write a mean detective story, madam!
I liked that bit of fill in description of the older person and teenager, upon their reaction to the awful news they'd had, the opposites of the generations.... I'm somewhere in between, I'd be crying and texting!!

Good chapter!

I like it it kept me entertained. In a few spots i had to go back and reread what was happening but it must have just went over my head because i got it the second time round.

His glanced quickly at the wall for directions to the cardiac unit. Par 14.
