>> Gonna Blow <<

(another day in the office, and another) The first time the Feder's met with Dr. Macaluso was memorable in a pleasant way. They had no angst about William's prospects. They just wanted to make him as able as God would allow. Making conversation, Doctor Macaluso asked his name even though he had been using it in conversation with Billy's parents. He got the full name with a middle initial thrown in. "William?" "William... and I'm FOUR!" then with his puzzled brow turned away from Dr. Macaluso, trying to manage four erect fingers while keeping one additional only partly open, he spun his arms around, ".. and.. a HALF! " He was a study in innocence despite his twisted legs, which seemed to be just one more irregularity in a big world of curiosity. "Four and a half? Cool. You'll be in school soon," Doctor Macaluso acknowledged. William pointed out quickly that he already WAS in school, describing in detail, the blocks, the books, the easels, the blankets." "Where do you live, William?" "Home. Pencil something." "Pennsylvania?" "Uh huh." "You drove all the way here from Pennsylvania? Did you stop anywhere on your way here?" "Yeah. Mommy pees a lot. I don't wet the bed anymore. I'm a big boy now."
