Sandy was happy to keep chatting, but Margie reappeared and told her and Barb that all of the entries were in for the cookie contest and that they needed to start their rounds.

“I’ve been waiting for this all day,” Barb said. “Let’s go Mrs. Claus.”

Sandy waved her ahead. “After you.”

Margie provided them each with a clipboard so that they could take notes and keep track of their favorites. At the end of their taste tests, they needed to give Margie their scorecards so she could tally up the votes.

As they were sampling the first cookies, Jack stopped over with two mugs of milk. “I thought this might be an important tool in helping with your responsibilities.”

Sandy accepted a mug from him. “Thank you Jack – this is exactly what I needed.”

She took a sip of the milk just as she heard something fall to the ground. Sandy looked over to Barb and saw that her right arm hung limp at her side, the cup shattered on the floor in a puddle of milk.

“Barb – are you okay?” asked Sandy.

Barb didn’t respond – she didn’t even look at Sandy.

Jack and Sandy locked eyes for a moment before Sandy took a step forward. “Barb? Barb, can you hear me?”

Still no response. Sandy could see the distinct change in Barb’s face – one side of her mouth looked downturned.

“Jack – I need you to call 911. Now.”

“You got it.”
