Week 3

Thursday i started a new book called the choice by nicholas sparks. It's about Travis who is a vet his neighbor Gabby. Her dog is pregnant. She thinks his dog got hers pregnant. She came over ranting to him. He was as nice as could be and told her to take her to the vet. She was so embarrassed of herself. The next day she went to the vet to see Travis there. Gabby vowed not to talk to him for quite some time. Until her dog had complications during labor. After, Travis asked Gabby to coffee. Gabby has a boyfriend of 4 years who continuously puts off the idea of their marriage. Travis flirts with her, and she deep down in her heart likes it. One afternoon they go with his friends to the beach. They end up pairasailing and having a cookout. Later on Travis invites Gabby over for dinner, and they kiss! She is shocked, but secretly happy. Gabby ends up having to choose between Travis and her boyfriend. Next part of the book talks about Travis wishing his marriage ends this way sounding like a divorice. But actually they got into an accident, and Gabby is in a coma. The author tells us that they built their dreamhouse on the peice of land that Travis owned where they lived very happily with their children. Travis has to decide to pull the plug or keep her alive. They have 2 kids who miss their mom terribly. Gabby wanted to die not kept on a feeding tube (because Gabby had watched a man at the hospital suffer and eventually resent his wife who was in a come. Gabby didn't want that to happen between her and Travis), but Travis couldn't do it. His friends helped him alot with the girls, but when they tried to comfort him he got angry. They eventually stopped coming around to visit him. He visited his wife every day and slowly went back to work. One day he got a call from Gabby's nurse "she's awake!" he was overjoyed. This book talks about how far we will go for love. Travis went to the ends of the earth for Gabby. This book touched me, and I cried like a baby. I read this book in 6.5 hours. My total time now is 13 hours. Tomorrow Joey is bringing me the book At First Sight by Nicholas Sparks.
