The Ballad of Sheryl and Penny

Feb, 1972 - Pregnant! How the hell could she be pregnant…well she knew HOW but, you know, HOW?!? Sheryl left the doctor’s office with her head down, wind whipping her plaid skirt around her knees. She crossed her arms over her thin chest as she walked the ten blocks to her family’s rundown apartment building.

That seems like an amazingly hard thing to write - and you wrote it very well. Thank you for sharing with us.

This was a beautiful story, thorny and sad and then the hope and love at the end just takes wing.

Wonderful.
