The Healing Quilt (2014)
“Not only was she dressed in Amish clothes, like Emma, but she was young and had two good legs. As far as Erika could tell, Anna might be a little older than her, but not by much.
Anna didn’t know how lucky she was. Erika envied people, especially those who were close to her age and weren’t bound to a wheelchair. They didn’t have to worry about the rest of their lives; they still had dreams they could live out, that would hopefully come true. Erika wondered, in her condition, if she was destined... to be alone for the rest of her life. Who would want to be strapped down by someone in a wheelchair? And what would she do if she did fall in love with a man someday? Could she expect him to commit to a relationship, knowing he would always have to do certain things for her? That was the burden she’d placed on her dad, as well as the woman he’d hired as Erika’s caregiver.
The silence in the room was thick, as neither Erika nor Anna spoke to each other, while waiting on Emma’s return.MoreLess
