The memory Keepers Daughter (Summary 2)

If you have been following along with me you will know that the little girl who is named Phoebe had just been diagnosed with Down Syndrome. The mother had just delivered twins but luckily the other baby boy is healthy as can be. Down Syndrome is nothing to play around with and anyone i know would do anything to make sure there kids are safe. Phoebes dad is no different. Ohh..the reason i just mentioned her dad was because her dad (David) felt it would be best if her mom (Norah) didn't know. Instead when she woke up from sedation, he had told her that there little girl had died. how could he do that to her? She was her baby too; why would he lie to her like that? i could only think of one reason which still gives him no excuse. He probably figured that it would upset her to much and she wouldn't be able to deal with all that they would have to go through. but on the other hand telling her the baby is dead doesn't make it any better. Anyway, the baby wasn't dead and David decided to give her to the nurse that helped deliver her. By the way she had a big crush on him so that wasn't probably the smartest idea. David had told nurse Caroline to take her to an institute where she could be treated. Instead though, Caroline ran away with her since she figured that Norah already thought Phoebe was dead. That still doesn't give her any excuse though to take someones child away. I would listen to the parents because they know what was best. Although he agreed this whole plan still wasn't right. David didn't completely shut her out of her life...Caroline and him wrote letters which gave him information on his daughter. Normally, something this big won't stay a secret forever. I don't know though; it may be possible that Norah will never know the truth.
