Dougal sat in the same room with his parents as he watched Rick drive away from the hospital he'd been struggling to visit since his grandmother began to have a coma.
While he looked sadly at his possibly dying parents, he heard a familiar humming out in the halls of the hospital. He decided to leave his parents alone for a little while to check what was really out there causing a racket.
He saw The Blue Glow! Only it was shaping itself into a form he never thought possible would ever appear in his life ever again.
It looked like his grandmother!
It even sounded and acted precisely like his grandmother as it, or now she, said in her usual dazzling voice, "Dougal Ray Abbott. Is that you, sweetheart?"
Emotions ran through his body as he saw her appearance got clearer and clearer.
Tears blinded his sight as he cried, ran to her, and hugged her. That same old familiar warmth was there by the original Blue Glow, only this warmth was more effective and familiar for Dougal. This time, he could never let go.
Then, she let go of him, waved, and The Blue Glow never appeared, ever again.
