Chapter 70

Monday morning, everyone was in a good mood, and the day passed without incident. First thing Tuesday morning Dani had his second dialysis session, and his mother and grandmother sat with him while I went to my office and told my receptionist to start accepting appointments. It was time for me to get back on some sort of a work schedule. Starting Wednesday, I went to the hospital every day and left Dani and our guests to their own devices. They again went with him to his dialysis sessions Thursday and Saturday. Sunday morning, we accompanied them to the airport to say good-bye.

“You’re welcome to come back anytime,” I said. “Just let us know.”

“Thank you,” Mrs. Rosati said. “Your grandmother invited us to come and visit her at her villa in Tuscany as well.”

“Then you should take her up on it,” Dani said. “It’s a beautiful place, and I’m sure she’d enjoy the company.”
