“Dad!” she interrupted, suddenly awake.
“I won’t tell anyone. I promise.”
“You really won’t?”
“I’m a doctor. I’ll keep it just as secret as if you were my patient.”
“Okaaayy…”
“Though actually, in this case, it’s a good thing your dad said that. Bedwetting is easy to fix, though the cure can be unpleasant at first.”
“It is?” Mirka said, interested now.
“Oh, yes. If you go through with it, we’ll have you all cured in plenty of time to stay through the winter.”
“Are you sure?”
“My wife deals with this all the time in her practice. It’s no big deal. Come see me tomorrow and I’ll go over everything and get you started.”
“I thought kids just grew out of it sooner or later?” said Mytzi.
“Usually they stop wetting the bed, but they aren’t always really cured. There’s only one real cause and therefore cure in most cases.”
