Excerpt from KEEPING THE BALANCE:



Nurse Naughty leaned over and whispered, her erotic breath brushing Walt’s ear, “No bullshit.  The three of us are D-E-A-D.”
Walt took a big drink of the bourbon; the bottle was almost empty, now.  “Okay, you win, you’ve scared me.  Go ahead and have your laugh.”
Walt held the near-empty bottle out for the doctor to take.  Dr. Good shook his head.  “No, you finish it.  A little alcohol is good for the soul.  And it can’t do your body any harm--that’s for sure,” he chuckled.
“But I don’t feel dead,” Walt protested.
“Got ya!”
Walt clutched his chest.  “Thank God!  I was actually beginning to believe that I was dead!”
