Epilogue
Five Years Later
Jamieson
“And what’s this?” I asked Ava.
“The cerebrum, Daddy.”
“And what does it do?”
“It’s the largest part of the brain, and it has two hemispheres. A right and a left.”
“That’s my girl.” I kissed her head.
“And what is this right here?” I pointed to the monitor.
“That’s a brain tumor. A beautiful big brain tumor.” She smiled.
“And where is it located.”
“The frontal lobe.”
“You are a genius, my love.”
“Really, Jamieson? She’s five. Do you think it’s wise to teach her about brain tumors?” Grace asked as she walked into the neuro room.
“You’re never too young to learn about brain tumors, Grace. She’s a genius like us. Ava, tell Mommy what your life plan is.”
“I’m going to Harvard, and I’m going to become a world-class neurosurgeon like my daddy.” She smiled as she folded her arms.
“What?” he asked as I narrowed my eye at him. “You can teach our son all about trauma if you want. Wait, maybe he’ll be a brilliant neurosurgeon, too, and then he and Ava can work together. A brother and sister team.” He grinned. “You can teach trauma to the next one.”
“The next one? I haven’t even had this one yet, and you’re already talking about another one?”
“Daddy, I want to see more brain tumors.”
“Of course, you do, sweetheart.” I kissed her head as I winked at Grace. “Go look at that monitor over there and see if you can spot the brain tumor while I talk to Mommy.”
“Okay, Daddy.”
I walked over to Grace and wrapped my arms around her.
“I love you, Dr. Finn.”
“I love you too, Dr. Finn.”
My life was perfect. I had a beautiful wife, a beautiful daughter, and a son on the way.
I never thought my life would turn out the way it had.
I envisioned myself being alone because that was how I wanted it until Grace walked into my life.
She turned my world upside down, and I hadn’t been the same since.
She was the bright side of my life and the best thing that had ever happened to me.
I redeemed myself and was rewarded in ways I never thought possible.
Thank you for reading Jamieson Finn!
I hope you enjoyed it.
