Starting to really get into the story.

This week in the book I read about one of the families reactions when they got the call from the hospital about their daughter being alive. It was different than the reaction I would expect. For one, the other daughter that was living in the house was convinced that the call was a prank call and they should just go back to sleep; it's not like she does not care if her sister was alive, she just thought that this was some jerk that was playing a horrible joke on them. The daughter, Carly, would not let her mother even think that the news was real. While Carly thought the call was fake, the mother had mixed feelings. On one hand, nothing could make her happier than to have her daughter back, but at the same she does not want to fully believe that her daughter is actually alive because she does not want to go through the pain of losing her daughter again. I talked about this because it was completely not what I expected to do. I would expect them to immediately run to the car and speed to the hospital.
