Here is a sneak peek at what you'll find in chapter 17:

         “Hello, earth to Ethan. Ethan, come in please?” Chris waved his hand in front of Ethan’s face, eliciting no response. Okay, something’s got to snap him out of whatever fog he’s in, but what? Wait, I got it! Chris went over to the computer set up in the corner of Ethan’s workshop opened up the browser and searched for pictures of naked men. Eeewwww he thought as he looked over the selection presented to him. He finally selected one of a young naked guy on his stomach shown from the butt up and hit Print. The laser printer whirred to life and spit out the picture. Chris quickly wiped the browser history and closed it down. Grabbing the picture he went back over to Ethan and waved it in front of his face. “Oh, Ethan, look what I have for you,” he teased. Nothing. Exasperated, he finally grabbed Ethan by the shoulders and shook him. “Here we go again. C’mon, bro. Snap out of it!”

         “Huh? What?”

         “Man, you were really out of it. I’ve been trying to get your attention for the last 10 minutes. What’s going on with you? You’ve been like this since you came home from the hospital.”

         “There’s just so much. I can’t get my head around it all.”

         “Around what?” Chris pulled up a chair and sat down next to Ethan, placing his hand on his shoulder. 

         “Come on, Ethan, you can tell me anything. You know that.”

         “It’s just what the doctors told me in the hospital; that there’s something strange in my blood that can lead to a cure for all STD’s, even HIV and AIDS, that a vaccine could be created that can save countless lives.”


         “And,” Chris prompted.
