The Forth Entry / I Heard it on the News

I heard this on the local “news” radio channel – the same one that carries Rush Limbaugh and Hannity – and I didn’t think too much about it at first. Then I got to thinking about it. Anyway, it seems there was an old lady went missing in Austin and they had put out an Amber alert. They think she just wandered away and got confused, couldn’t find her way back home. She was on medication and it was important that they find her soon, so if anyone had any information etcetera. But what stuck in my mind was something a relative said in a sound byte, sort of off handedly, kind of in the background. She said, “…need to find her pretty soon, don’t want her to die again…”. Okay. Maybe she had had a close call. Maybe she had even been revived. Or maybe she had died. Maybe she was dead. I mean out there walking dead. Nah. But I would like to hear how this story turns out.
