Tuesday, August 14, 2:30 PM; Denver General Hospital (8:30 AM Wednesday on Tracy Island)

"Well, Mrs. Matumbo. Your latest scans show no signs of any further trouble, so I am signing your discharge papers. And I see you are already set to leave us."

Lena was dressed in a pantsuit that Joy'd had the foresight to pack. Although her overnight bag had been found, along with her laptop and purse, her things had been damaged. She was grateful for her daughter's thoughtfulness.

She and Naomi were sitting on the bed, while the others occupied the chairs in the room. She grinned. "Doctor Sloan, you've taken such good care of me, I knew dere could be no otter result. And, of course, I'm anxious to get back to de familiarity of my own home."

"I hope you have someone to be with you. You will need help, at least until your collarbone heals."

"After her first night home, she'll be staying with Matthew and his wife until her doctor in Maryland says she is well enough to live by herself again," Joy answered.

"Ah, good." Dr. Sloan held out a folder. "Here are all the medical records for him. I took the liberty of calling him and you have an appointment to see him on Thursday morning. He'll want to check you over himself." He turned as there was a noise in the doorway. "And here is the nurse with the wheelchair to take you to the entrance. I hope that if I meet any of you again, it'll be under better circumstances."

Lena had taken the folder and put it in her bag. She smiled at him as she got off the bed, and held her hand out. As the doctor shook it, she said, "Dat is my hope, too. Tank you for your excellent care."

The nurse brought the wheelchair closer and Lena sat down. Naomi asked to be able to push the chair, and the nurse looked over at the doctor. He nodded and, with a smile, she relinquished the chair to the young girl. They left the room and headed to the elevator, where the doctor bid them goodbye and continued on his rounds.

When they finally reached the lobby, they saw a limousine waiting outside, the driver standing by the rear door. Lena looked up at her son, who said, "I know. It seems that Mr. Tracy or someone there paid our hotel bill, and put this limo at our disposal."

"And guess what, Nyanya," interrupted Naomi. "We're going home in one of the Tracy Industries private jets! It seems that he decided it would be more comfortable for you. Isn't that cool?"

"I would have called him if I could have and told him it was unnecessary to do all this, but I had no way to get in touch with him."

"He would have told you it was necessary. He's dat kind of man, Mattew. So we'll take him up on his generosity and tank him for it when we get home -- all of us," she answered, looking at the children in turn, as the chauffeur opened the door and she stood up to enter the vehicle. She paused to thank the nurse, who smiled and took the wheelchair back from Naomi, then headed back into the hospital. Lena got into the limo, followed by her family, and they soon were heading to the airport.
