Uncertainty Of Future

Eddie clings desperately to the

the future.
Eddie suffered two of the hard
est blows that could come to q

When he asked why, he learned

his father was taken to a mental
institution. Grieving and scared,
10-year-old Eddie spent Christ
mas in a children's shelter. He
was without relatives. Nothing

Eddie was so apprehenSive
-about what might happen to
him that he didn't want to leave

home-that the place he is
homesick for doesn't exist now
Another change also Is loom

Soon a lone bird swooped over
