by Rita Lamb
A 15-year-old boy sits with his elderly grandmother who had trouble remembering what time
she is in, and at least once, the trouble slips over to the boy, too.

And drowsily I put my hand down to where I felt the warm, heavy head shifting restlessly
on my kneww, and I stoked the silky crown, and I looked into the puzzled brown eyes of a
young dog.
