“Leave it alone, Kevin,” Terri said. “Nobody cares and all you’re doing is drawing attention to it.” This was true. Some other people, adults and children were watching Kevin go by and a little girl giggled a bit and Kevin began biting on his lip blushing.

While Terri and the orderly were loading Kevin in the car, I stopped by the dispensary with a note to pick up a pediatric wheelchair for a child under 100 pounds. It was in a flat box that I carried out to the car and put in the back of the minivan. The orderly had put a loaner booster seat in the back for Kevin because he said it was required for a child his size. Kevin grumbled about this but wanted to get home so he didn’t make too much of a fuss.
