Arren, Tony and Isaac

Part 3

Chapter 26 - The Death of Silence

Special note:  Most of this chapter that we are writing about is true.  We
are still not mentioning names and locations to keep the people that we love
from becoming embarrassed.  We do hope that all of the readers out there are
okay with this part.  It was a very traumatic time in our lives.

--------------------

It was now 1995 and Isaac and I were starting our second year in our home.
In the first part of February, I woke up and Isaac wasn't in bed with me.  I
didn't notice him getting up and leaving, and I didn't think too much about
it at that time.  I went to the bathroom and did what I needed to do and
then I went to the kitchen.  Isaac was standing by the sink taking some
aspirin for a mild headache that he said that he had.  I asked him if he was
coming down with something and he signed to me that he must have just slept
wrong or something.  After about thirty minutes, Isaac's headache was gone.

Over the rest of winter Isaac and I would do what we could around the house
and visit with Karen and Andy a lot, so we could see the babies.  Isaac and
I were doing what we could for them and had as much fun as we could.  I
asked Karen if she wanted anymore children and she told me that two was
enough.  With Andy working full time and her working a part time job, she
didn't think that it would be fair to have more and not be able to care for
them like she would like.  I told her that Isaac and I would love to help in
anyway we could and she just gave us a big hug in return.

Over the weeks, Ronald and Tyler would stop by for some fun.  Paul was still
not sure if he wanted to join us for a super great time, so Ronald and Tyler
didn't push anything on him.  Then one day all three of them showed up at
our front door.  Ronald quickly took me aside and told me that him and Tyler
got him to loosen up a little and had sex with him.  He really loved it, but
they didn't have anal sex with him and asked me not to push him into
something that he wasn't ready for.  Isaac and I would be more then happy to
do what we could, as long as we can see him naked and get Tyler to suck on
us the way that he does.  We really LOVE that.

I could see that Paul was nervous and he would need some time to get in the
mood.  Isaac was happy and you could see it in his pants.  His penis was
very hard and he wanted to play.  I didn't think that Paul would mind if I
started kissing MY Isaac.  He has seen me kiss him before, and knows that we
are gay and I thought this might start things off.  I was right and Tyler
started playing with MY Isaac penis through his pants.  Ronald started doing
a little playing with Paul and this seemed to get things going more.

Isaac wanted his penis sucked and he wanted it sucked as soon as possible.
I undid his pants and Tyler was on him, I then stood up and got naked.
Tyler wanted all of us naked and stopped sucking on Isaac as he proceeded to
get naked himself.  Ronald quickly got naked with Paul stripping as well.
Isaac and I wanted to see Paul's penis really badly and when it came out it
was very cute.  Paul is circumcised just like Tyler and his testicles were
not as big, but we still wanted to touch them.  His penis is about six
inches long and the head was just right for sucking on.  Paul doesn't have a
lot of hair on his body, but seemed to have more on his leg then the rest of
him.  I didn't care and went to touch his penis, with MY Isaac holding me as
we did.

Paul's penis was very hard and Isaac wanted to try licking his testicles.  I
asked him to sit on the sofa and when he did, Isaac was licking every inch
of Paul's testicles.  Tyler then took Paul's penis into his mouth while
Isaac was licking him and sucked him off.  Isaac told me that he loved it
when Paul blew while Tyler was sucking him.  Tyler then sat MY Isaac down on
the sofa and SUCKED him off as hard as he could.  Isaac was just flipping
out; he loved it so much.  Then Tyler did me off and then Ronald.  Finally,
Ronald sucked off Tyler.

During the day, Isaac and I sucked on Paul too.  Paul was really having a
good time and liked what we did.  Paul didn't suck on anyone this day and we
didn't ask him either.  If he wanted to try sucking, then we would let him
try it, when he was ready to try it.  Until then, we made him cum four
times, although, Isaac was asleep for most of it, because Tyler loves
putting him to sleep by sucking him off.

A few days later Ronald called us and told us that Paul did try sucking on
both of them, but he never made either of them cum.  I guess it might take
awhile for him to try that.  Isaac didn't suck me off that first time either
when we first got together.  But once he did suck me off, he couldn't get
enough of me.  Now I never see my semen, because I either get it sucked out
of me, or Isaac wants me to shoot it into him, when we have anal sex.  It
doesn't matter to me, as long as MY Isaac is happy and content, as he is.

Saturday, May 20, 1995, it was my 21st birthday and MY Isaac wasn't feeling
very good on this day.  He told me that he had another headache and wished
that he was feeling better, so that he could make me a special dinner.  I
didn't care about the dinner; I just wanted him to feel better soon.  He was
taking something a little stronger to get rid of it; it did work, for now.
I asked Isaac if he wanted to go and see a doctor about all the headaches he
has been getting.  He told me that he would be okay in a little while, after
the medicine took affect.  Isaac was feeling okay by that evening, but I was
starting to worry.

Over the next few weeks, Isaac was feeling worse.  I told him that we should
go and see a doctor.  He didn't want to, until after his birthday.  I didn't
know what that had to do with anything.  I just wanted him to feel better,
but I could tell that he was in more pain then he was letting me know.  I
told him that I was going to call a doctor and make an appointment for him;
he told me that he was okay, but something deep inside of me told me
differently.

Weeks later, Isaac was feeling better and we made plans to go on a little
trip over to the coast.  He said that he was looking forward to going and
started to pack a few things.  It was just about five days after his
twenty-first birthday that we decided to go on our little trip.  I got up in
the morning and went to the bathroom; Isaac had to use the toilet too and
started walking to the bathroom.  He was walking really funny, even with his
crutches.  I asked him if he was okay and he told me that he had another
slight headache.  After he used the toilet he wanted to lie down.  I told
him that we are not going on our trip until he was feeling better.  He then
looked at me really weird and then he fell unconscious.

I knew he was having another bad headache, so I tried to wake Isaac, but he
was not responding.  I panicked, something was terribly wrong with MY Isaac,
I couldn't wake him up.  I grabbed for the phone and called for help.  The
operator on the other end was trying to calm me down while she told me that
help was on the way.  I was crying like a baby trying to get the person that
I love more then life itself to respond.  I just knew that MY Isaac was
dead, and I knew that nothing on this planet could bring him back.

I heard the ambulance coming and ran for the door so that they could help
Isaac.  It seemed that they were moving way to slow and I wanted to them to
hurry up.  They came in and called the hospital with a radio or something
and then started a few IV's.  Isaac wasn't dead, but just unconscious (thank
you God for showing mercy to MY Isaac).  They put him on a small bed that
was on wheels, while one of the paramedics was asking me if he fell or
something.  I don't really remember everything that he was asking me, I just
wanted them to help Isaac, I was just coming apart.

They finally got Isaac into the ambulance and wanted me to come with them,
because they didn't want me driving.  I got in the back with MY Isaac and
held his hand while they rushed us to the hospital.  It seemed liked it took
forever to get there, but we finally made it.  The doctors and nurses came
out and took Isaac inside.  They had him on all kinds of monitors and
devices once he was inside.  They had me sit off to one side while they
worked on him.  I was just losing it when a very nice nurse came over to me
and gave me a robe to wear, because all I had on was my underwear.  Then she
asked me if she could call anyone for me and I tried to pull myself together
long enough to give her Mom and Dad's phone number.  She told me that she
would call them for me and wanted me to just sit here and try to calm down.
She told me that the doctors were doing everything humanly possible for
Isaac.

The doctors and nurses were still working on Isaac trying to help him.  I
have never been so scared in my whole life.  Then a nurse told me that they
were taking Isaac to X-Ray to get some pictures.  She told me that they were
not sure what was wrong, but they called a doctor from neurology and he was
going to meet them there.  One of the doctors had a nurse show me to a
waiting room near the place were they were taking him.  All of this seemed
like a super bad nightmare and if I could just wake up, everything would be
okay again, but it was really happening.

Mom and Dad showed up about an hour after they took Isaac into the X-Ray
room.  When I saw Mom I just grabbed her and cried like a baby.  Dad was
hugging me too and was trying to find out what was wrong with MY Isaac.  I
told him all that I knew, but I couldn't tell them anymore then that.  Dad
went to ask anyone if they could give him any information, I just hugged Mom
and cried while Dad was gone.  He came back about thirty minutes later and
told us that they took Isaac to get an M.R.I.  That was all he knew for now.
Then I hugged Dad while we waited for what seemed like an eternity.

After what seemed like forever and a day, a doctor finally came in and told
us that they had to take MY Isaac to surgery and get some kind of tumor out
of his head.  I couldn't believe this was happening and asked the doctor if
Isaac was going to be okay.  He told me that he was going to doing
everything that he could possibly do to help Isaac.  He said that he had to
go and would inform us when the surgery was over.  I just said a little
prayer and asked God to help the surgeon help the one that I love so much.

I wasn't sure how long the surgery lasted, but it seemed like it took
forever.  Then finally the doctor came in with the news that he had.  He
told us that they had to remove a pretty good size tumor from Isaac's head.
He was telling us that it was sent to a place called, Pathology, to be
tested.  He wanted to make sure it wasn't cancerous.  Then he told us that
Isaac was in the recovery room and then they were moving him to the
Intensive Care Unit (ICU).  He would tell us more, when he knew more.  I
just had to hug him for saving the one that I love so much.

Over the next several hours, Isaac was still unconscious, but at least he
was still alive.  They finally let me in to see him and when I did, I took
his hand in mine and held it.  They had his head all bandage up and he had
all kinds of wires and tubes on and in him.  I spoke softly and was telling
him that I was here and that nothing was going to take me away from him.  I
told him that I loved him and hugged his hand to my face.  I knew in my
heart that MY Isaac could hear me, even if he was just unconscious.

The doctor came in and told me not to get upset with what he was going to
tell me.  He said that MY Isaac had slipped into a coma.  My heart just
about stopped and I fell to the floor, I was out.  I woke up in a room and
was lying on a bed that was not ours.  They put me in a room so that I could
sleep.  It was a very long time since I got any rest or ate anything and I
guess they also wanted to make sure I hadn't hurt myself when I fell.  Mom
and Dad were in the room with me when I woke up.  Mom was smiling and I knew
it was because she knew I was okay.

I asked how long I had been here and Dad told me it was about nine hours.  I
got up and wanted to see Isaac.  Mom and Dad got me some clothes to wear and
I put them on, then I went to see Isaac.  I was feeling better and I was
determined to be there for Isaac.  The doctor was in the room with Isaac
when I showed up.  He was glad that I hadn't hurt myself when I fell and I
thanked him for his concern, but asked him to care for Isaac and not to
worry about me.  He reassured me that they were doing what they could for
Isaac and that he was getting the best care that he could get.  Isaac was
still in a coma and that had me very worried.

After about an hour sitting with MY Isaac, Dad came in and all of us went to
the cafeteria to get something to eat.  I hadn't eaten in a long time and I
was getting pretty hungry.  We were in the cafeteria when Karen and Andy
came in with the babies.  This made me smile a little and I think this is
why my sister did this for me.  I love her very much.  Mom and Dad told me
that they called Isaac's Mom and she was coming up here as soon as possible.
Dad told me that he tried to call Isaac's father, but he had his phone
number changed.  I just thought he was being a great big BUTT HEAD.  He
doesn't even know that his son is very sick and could use his love.

I didn't get much sleep that night in the waiting room.  Mom and Dad stayed
with me also and in the morning Dad went to get a little food.  Ronald came
by too, with his girlfriend and I was glad that he did.  Ellen showed up
about midmorning and was very upset that Isaac was so ill.  We told her
everything that we could tell her.  We even talked to the doctor around
eleven that morning.  He told us that Isaac should come out of the coma
soon, but he couldn't tell us exactly when.  He said that Isaac needs the
time to just heal.  The doctor also informed us that the tumor was not
cancerous.  That certainly was a big relief.  He also told us that they
would be moving Isaac out of the ICU in a few days and he would be in a room
where more of his family could visit him.  They said that he would still get
very good care, but just wouldn't need to be watched so closely.

About a day later, Dad took me home and I got cleaned up and changed my
clothes.  I also made sure that the house was going to be okay while I was
gone.  I was going to stay at the hospital for as long as I could while MY
Isaac was there.  I packed a few things and put them in the van and drove it
back to the hospital.  This way I wouldn't need to go home every time I
needed something.  I just wanted to be as close to Isaac as I could.  I
parked the van in a spot that I was sure would be out of the way and locked
it up and went in to be with MY Isaac.

A few days later, they moved Isaac out of the ICU and into a room with a
nice view of the city.  You could see pretty well from here and I thought
this would be a nice place for the time that Isaac was going to be here.
Ellen brought Isaac a nice plant and set it near his bed.  She wasn't
getting very much sleep and I could see that she was very worried about him.
I was still very worried too, but I was feeling a little better that the
doctors and nurses were so good at their jobs.  The doctor would come in and
check on Isaac about two or three times a day and this made me feel even
better.

It has now been over a week and Isaac was still in a coma.  Mom and Dad took
Ellen home to finally get some rest; I was still staying at the hospital,
and would sleep in the van that I parked in the parking lot.  The doctor
told me that Isaac was coming along pretty good and he told me that Isaac
should come out of the coma soon.  I was hoping that he was right.  I hated
to see him just lying there and not seeing him smile.  I really miss not
being ably to do what I could for him.

A couple of days later, I decided to go home and check on the house and see
how much mail has piled up.  I also needed to do a little laundry and a few
other things as well.  I was going to make it fast, so that I could get
myself back to the hospital.  When I arrived home, the mail wasn't as bad as
I thought it was going to be and paid the few bills that came in while the
washing machine was going.  After I finished, I made my way back to the
hospital.

The doctor was in with Isaac and checking him over.  He told me that he was
seeing signs that Isaac was starting to come out of his coma.  I was so
happy and gave the doctor another hug and thanked him for helping MY Isaac.
I don't know if he knew that we were gay or not and I don't think that he
cared either.  Isaac's Mom was very happy that Isaac was getting better.  I
still wanted him home with me, but I knew that would be a little ways off.

A few days later, after Mom and Dad took Ellen back to their house to get
some more rest.  I also went home to do a few more things.  I wanted MY
Isaac to have some clothes to wear when he woke up and he would also need
his crutches to be able to walk as well.  I brought all of what I thought he
would need and put his crutches near his bed so he would have them.  It was
starting to get dark by this time and I decided to go home and get something
to eat and get back to the hospital so I could be with MY Isaac.

When I got home the phone was ringing and when I answered it, there was a
nurse on the other end.  She was telling me that they just lost Isaac.  My
heart just about stopped and I had to ask her again what she just said.  She
told me that Isaac was gone and wanted to know if I took him out of the
hospital.  He was not in his bed and they didn't know where he was.  I told
her that he was not with me and to find him fast, I was coming back to the
hospital as soon as I could.

As I was driving back to the hospital, I was glad that Isaac was awake, but
was very scared about how the hospital wasn't watching him and he just
slipped by them.  Weren't they watching the monitors that they had him
hooked up to?  I would find out more when I get to the hospital.  I didn't
think I'd ever get there, but I finally did and rushed to Isaac's room.  The
first thing I saw was that his crutches were gone and the clothes that I
brought him as well.  The doctor and a nurse came in and told me that they
had the hospital security looking for him.  I wanted to know how he just got
by them and they told me that a patient went into cardiac arrest and this
must be when he walked out.  The doctor told me that Isaac needs to get back
here very soon and that they were doing what they could to find him.

For some reason, I looked out the window and then I thought that I knew
where he was, but I wasn't sure.  I told the doctor that I was going to
check out a place and left the room.  I left the hospital and walked across
the street to an all night restaurant.  From the front door of the
restaurant, I looked back and could see the hospital very clearly and the
window to Isaac's room.  I went inside and asked if they saw anyone with a
bandage on their head.  The waitress told me that there was someone like
that sitting in the back.  I went to where she told me he was and I found MY
Isaac sitting at a table with a few plates of food, he was just eating
pancakes and eggs like nothing was wrong.  He looked at me and smiled.  My
heart just got a jump start when I saw that he was okay and that smile
brought a little more life back into my soul.

I went up to him and asked him what he was doing and why he left the
hospital.  He turned his head to face me, smiled big, and SAID; I love you
Arren.  He didn't sign it, he said it with words.  My jaw just about dropped
to the floor.  MY Isaac was speaking and the first things that I heard him
say were; I love you Arren.  He didn't say it very fast, but he was
speaking, I couldn't believe my ears.  I was so happy for the one I love so
much.  After all this time, MY Isaac got what he always wanted, a voice.

I hugged him and told him that I loved him too and then gave him a little
kiss.  I didn't care if anyone saw us or not, I was just so happy that he
was okay and got his voice back.  Isaac was happy too and continued to TELL
me that he did hear me, while he was unconscious.  I told him that I was so
happy he was better and that I was so scared that I thought I was going to
lose him.  I also told him about all the people that came to see him and
when they do find out that he can speak again, they'll be even happier.
Isaac said that he loved me again and started eating the food, he was so
hungry.  I just sat with him and let him eat what he wanted and hugged him
in my arms.  I also let him talk as much as he could.  I knew he would be
hungry, because I was when I woke up after my ordeal.  The only thing I
wanted was a peanut butter sandwich, but it took a little while to get one,
and was glad that I did.

After Isaac ate what he wanted, he took one of his crutches to get the money
that he always keeps inside of them to pay for what he ordered.  I told him
that I was going to take him back to the hospital and he didn't want to go,
but he knew that he had to.  As we walked slowly back to the hospital, I
asked him how he got out without anyone seeing him.  He told me that he just
walked out and came to the restaurant to get something to eat; he SAID that
he was super hungry and wanted some pancakes.

When we got to the hospital, there were nurses that were looking for him and
got him a wheelchair.  They took him back to his room and the doctors were
checking him over.  They were not very happy that he pulled out all of his
IV tubes and everything else that he was hooked up to.  I told them where I
found him and what he was doing.  They kept telling him that what he did was
very foolish and that he could have really hurt himself.  Isaac told them,
slowly, that he wanted food and that he is not a baby, and he can do what he
wanted.  He also told them that he feels great and wants to go home, now.
The doctors told him that he wasn't going anywhere for awhile.  They were
going to make sure that he was okay.  MY Isaac was okay, and he was getting
better everyday.

After awhile, I called Mom and Dad and asked them to bring Ellen to see
Isaac.  I said to Dad, that Isaac was awake, but I didn't tell him that MY
Isaac was now talking.  I wanted Isaac to tell them that he could talk.  Dad
told me that they would be there as soon a possible.  Dad knew that I was
super happy that Isaac was better, but he really didn't know just how happy
I really was.

About forty five minutes later Mom, Dad and Ellen came into Isaac's room.
Isaac smiled at everyone, and then SAID, "Hi Mom."  Ellen was so happy that
she started crying and went over to hug Isaac.  Mom and Dad were also very
happy.  They couldn't believe that he was now beginning to speak, after all
these years.  Ellen stopped crying just long enough to ask Isaac to say
something else; she didn't care what it was.  She just wanted to hear her
baby's sweet voice again.

It took Isaac a few minutes to tell her how he heard everyone and when he
woke up how hungry he was and wanted food.  She was concerned that he left
the hospital without telling anyone, but super happy that he can now speak.
Dad told Isaac to just get better, so that he could come home and then we
could have a great big Bar-B-Q to celebrate him getting his voice back.
Isaac wanted to go home now and have the Bar-B-Q tomorrow, but he knew that
was not going to happen that soon.

The doctor came back in and told us that we had to leave, because it was way
past visiting hours.  I asked if I could stay a little while longer.  The
doctor told me that I could, but Isaac is going to need his rest and in the
morning they were going to run a few test on him.  Mom, Dad and Ellen said
goodnight to Isaac with a big kiss.  It was really neat watching MY Isaac
getting all embarrassed with all the attention he was getting.  I just loved
it and MY Isaac knew it too.

After everyone left, I told MY Isaac that I was so happy that he was getting
better.  I also told him that I have the van here and that I was staying in
the van so that I could be really close.  He said that he was glad that I
was close, because he is getting out of here as soon as he could.  He wants
that Bar-B-Q, and even wants to go swimming in the pool.  I told him that
would be the first thing we do when the doctors let him go home.

Over the next week the doctors did their tests on Isaac.  They told him and
me that they were really surprised at how fast he was responding to
treatment.  They also took more X-Rays and did another M.R.I. to see if that
tumor was really gone.  They told us the good news that it was gone and they
would give Isaac some medication to make sure that he wouldn't have any
problem with inflammation and pain.  Isaac said that he never felt better
and told them that he was ready to go home.  His doctor said that he could
go home in the morning.  Isaac was very happy to hear that.

I called Mom and Dad and told them that we would come down the day after
Isaac gets out of the hospital.  Dad said that he would get everything that
we'd need for Isaac's coming home party.  I asked Dad to make sure that
Ronald, Karen and Andy, with the super cute babies were there also.  He said
that they would be and he said that he would take care of everything.  I
told him that I loved him and everyone very much.  I knew Dad was feeling
very happy, just like everyone else.

Early the next morning, the nurse came in with a wheelchair for Isaac.  He
was very happy about leaving and sat in the chair.  It was certainly a
different situation with me.  I wanted to walk out, but Isaac just wanted to
leave and he didn't care how he was leaving as long as he was.  The nurse
wheeled Isaac out to the van and I helped him to get in, but for some reason
I didn't have to help him as much as I used to.  Isaac was now able to do a
little more for himself.  Maybe that glob that was in his head was keeping
him for doing what he wanted to do, who knows.

Isaac was talking a little better now and was telling me everything that he
just couldn't tell me in signs.  He was telling me how the sky and trees
looked like to him.  He even told me how cars sounded like to him.  He went
on about Birds, Dogs and other animals that made noise; he just talked about
anything that made him happy, including me, his Arren.  When we got to the
house, Karen and Andy were there with the babies.  Isaac just called them by
their names and gave everyone a hug.  They stayed for about an hour before
they headed out, but not before I told them to be at Isaac's party tomorrow.
Karen told me that all of them would be there and that nothing would stop
them form showing up.

After I unpacked everything, Isaac wanted to sit outside.  We went out and
sat under a nice shady tree and held hands and just talked.  Isaac, for some
reason was just so happy.  He was just looking at the world a little
differently now.  He said that things smelled better and looked better too.
Then he wanted to go in the house and cuddle with me.  He said that he
needed to know if I felt better too.  We went into the living room and sat
on the sofa naked together.  The only thing we had on was the bandage that
Isaac had on his head, but that would come off soon enough.  Isaac and I
just sat and cuddled, and then MY beautiful Isaac fell asleep while I held
him in my arms.  I was just so happy that I was able to do this again; I
love him so much.

The next morning Isaac didn't need as much help in the shower, but we still
held each other as close as we could.  Then we got ready to go and then got
into the van to head over to Mom and Dad's.  Isaac was happy that we were
going someplace together again and told me that he should have gone to the
doctors sooner and had that tumor taken out.  He might not have had to spend
as much time in the hospital and we could have been together more.  As I was
driving to Mom and Dad's, I made Isaac a promise that if I ever feel bad
that I was going to do what I could to get better and I asked for his
promise for the same thing from him.  Isaac gave me a big smile, said that
he loves me and told that he will never do anything like that again.  He
said that he promises that he'll always try and be there for me as well.

Seeing the house as we drove up made me have a very good feeling inside.
Dad and Grandpa came out to see if we needed help.  Isaac said that he was
fine and didn't need any help; in fact, he was only using one of his
crutches to walk.  He didn't need both for some reason, maybe he was better
then he thought.

Ronald was here with his girlfriend and Tyler was here too.  He didn't have
a girlfriend.  Gee I wonder why!  Isaac whispered that himself, with a super
cute smile.  I wanted to kiss him so bad and just did.  Sandra and Paula
were here also and Isaac and I gave them big smile and told them that we
were happy to see them.  Karen and Andy came by about twenty minutes later
and everyone was playing with the babies.  Isaac wanted to swim a little and
we just stripped down and got into the pool.  Sandra and Paula joined us and
I could see Ronald's girlfriend giving us looks like we were strange.  Tyler
got in the water too, naked, and then Karen came in with Isabella.  She
liked playing in the water naked too.  Andy held baby Peter and walked
around the shallow end with him for a few minutes.  It was a lot of fun
having all of the family here again.  Although, we thought that Ronald's
girlfriend could lighten up a little and get naked and have fun in the water
with us, but she never did.  Some people, go figure.

Dad started the Bar-B-Q and he and Grandpa did the cooking.  Mom made sure
that they didn't burn anything.  Grandma was also watching them and would
keep telling them to stop play with the babies and cook the food.  I heard
Dad say that Grandma was a big party pooper.  Grandpa and Grandma Conders
showed up just when the food was ready to be served.  They just got back
from the store with the Ice Cream.  Grandma Conders wanted the Ice Cream to
be just right for Isaac.  She got two gallons of a very good chocolate and
put it in the freezer until we were ready for it, which was only a few
minutes later.  Everyone wanted some right after we pigged out on the food
that Dad and Grandpa cooked up.

Ellen was just so happy and Isaac could tell that she was.  He told me later
that he couldn't remember when he saw his mother so happy.  I saw her really
happy once, but it was that day that she was helping us with our costumes
for the Halloween party that we went to.  It was nice seeing her with a big
smile on her face again and Isaac was also happy seeing his Mom laugh again.

Isaac knew that this little party was mostly for him, but he wanted everyone
to share it with him.  He was really glad to be out of the hospital and
still knew that he had a lot of recovering to do.  I could see that Isaac
was better then he ever was.  Not only was he now talking, but he was
walking better as well.  He told me that things looked, smelled, sounded,
tasted and felt better.  He told me that his love for me was even stronger
now then it was just a few seconds before.  He also told me that he couldn't
wait to see just how good I was when we get together, alone.  I smiled when
he was telling me all of this and I wanted him to find that out too.

Everyone was started to think about heading for home later on that evening.
Sandra and Paula gave us super hugs before they left and said that they
would stop by after Isaac was feeling even better.  They said that we could
have some more fun, but for now they wished Isaac a speedy recovery before
they left.  Ronald and his girlfriend were getting ready to leave too.  It
was too bad that she didn't get naked with us; she might have had more fun.
I certainly could tell that she was looking at everyone that had a penis
hanging out.  She was doing some hard staring and it did make a few of us
feel uneasy.  Maybe if she comes out again, then she might loosen up more
and get naked and have a better time.

Tyler was getting ready to go as well and made sure that no one was around
when he said that he would stop by and see how our penises were.  Isaac and
I told him that anytime he wanted to check out our penises, then he was more
then welcome to do so.  Isaac and I gave him a wink and then Tyler left as
well.  Paul never made it to our little party; Ronald told us that he had to
work and couldn't make it, too bad.  Karen and Andy were going to go and
visit with a few friends before they headed for home too.  Mom and Dad were
going to watch the babies for the night and then they would pick up the
children in the morning.  Mom and Dad were really glad to be watching their
Grandchildren for the night.  I know Mom was happy about having them stay
the night; she just loves them so much.

Isaac and I were getting ready to head for home too.  Mom and Dad asked us
if we wanted to stay the night, but Isaac wanted to have me all to himself.
Mom and Dad understood and we said our goodnights to everyone and thanked
them all very much.  Isaac was giving everyone big hugs and telling them
that he really loved what they did for him.  Everyone was more then happy to
do it too.  Ellen walked us out to the van and was telling us that she was
going to be staying for about a week longer before she would be going back
down to her sisters in the Los Angeles area.  Isaac wanted her to stay here
longer but she had to head back down.  He would miss her and he told her
that we would try and come down for a visit which she was happy about.

We got into the van and I drove us home.  Isaac was glad that we were
heading for home, he was getting a little tired and he wanted to go and lie
down.  I asked him if he was okay and he told me that it was a long day and
he was just tired.  He told me that he promised he would tell me if anything
was wrong.  When we got home I helped him into the house and into the
bedroom.  He was okay and then I went back outside to park the van in the
garage.  I closed the garage door and went into the house.  Isaac was
sitting on the bed reading a book that he liked.  I got ready for bed too
and cuddled close to him.  Isaac told me that he loved me again, which I'll
never get tired of hearing, and then he kissed me.  I told him that I loved
him too and hugged and kissed him also.  I think that our lives are getting
back to the way we like it.
