Ricky moved back, giving the Captain more room to try standing. Trooper paid close attention to her master’s movements.

Evangeline looked up from the file and joined the other two witnesses to watch the patient stand for the first time on his new leg.

He positioned his hands behind him on the bed and pushed. He stood for a second. He grimaced a bit and then exhaled. “Well, Ricky, let’s take Peggy for a trial run.”

“Peggy?” Evangeline shook her head.

“I know this is a man’s ankle and foot, and I realize that Ricky has brought me one that is a lot fancier than a wooden leg, but Peggy works and Peggy she is.” He stepped out with his good leg and then slowly and carefully put weight on the prosthetic. He nodded and took another step. “Trooper, you and I can finally start taking those hikes again!” And he headed out of his bedroom and into the hall, the dog loping behind.

Evangeline looked over to Ricky, who was grinning.

“Peg leg, Peggy . . . that’s a good one,” he noted. “Your dad’s pretty funny.”

“Hilarious,” she replied, and they both followed the Captain out the door.
