Jacob spent a lot of time at Grandma’s, as Mom and Dad were of ten at doctor appointments with his little sister. “Why must they take Pearl to the hospital all the time? Why can’t the doctors come to our house?” Jacob kept asking. 8
“They are specialists, doctors who work only at the hospital. Pearl goes to see them every once in a while, so that she can gain strength to stay at home again,” Grandma explained. “I don’t think those doctors are any good if they can’t cure Pearl!” Jacob felt upset. “There are some illnesses that can’t be cured, and some defects that can’t be fixed. That’s just the way life is.” Grandma sighed and stroked Jacob’s hair. 9
