The Memory Keeper's Daughter
Kim Edwards
Fiction Pg 3-52
I read about a doctor named David Henry. He had a wife that was going to have be in labor in three weeks.
One night he was getting ready to sleep when his wife said that her stomach hurts and she have never hurt that way before. He said that it might be nothing because her baby is due in three weeks. After a couple of minutes, she woke him up and told him that she timed it and it hurts every five minutes. He took her to his office because the hospital was five miles away. His nurse, Caroline came to help him. They gave some gas to his wife so she wouldn't be in pain. The first baby was a baby boy and he was really cute. David didn't know that his wife had twins until his wife cried out in pain. They gave her more gas and then the next baby came. The next one was a baby girl, but the instant David saw her, he knew that she would die in only a couple of years. He told his nurse to take the baby away because he didn't want to upset his wife. His sister was like their daughter, she died at age twelve and his mother cried a lot, so he didn't want his wife to cried too because he love her.
