I didn't sleep as well as I had since I began staying at Dawn and Barry's house. It was strange that I felt so comfortable with my fiancé's ex-wife, but we have become good friends since John disappeared into the night following a class reunion.

My mind roamed to the events leading up to that awful night. I didn't even see it coming. John had been so relaxed and happy during the weeks before the reunion. We spent a lot of time practicing the music we planned to play at the reunion, and John hadn't had an episode since he began faithfully taking the new prescription his doctor had written.
