It all went across Mac's face: horror, grief, anger, despair, and finally a feirce love that had
nowhere to go but hope. There's time for me that there wasn't for Stone. Stone's disease took
hold while he was alone and no one cared, when he didn't have a clue how to take care of
himself. I have All the Advantages. Love, care, and time. I have hime and he will not let me
down. He didn't let me down about Stone, either. He thinks I should tell him and he's promised
to help with what happens.
I still don't know. Stone is perfectly lucid at times and confused at others. The lymphoma, Tony says. He seems to remember clearly, then forgets, then remembers again. I wish I could tell him and then have him forget right away.
