PREFACE

These are unusual stories; they were born from my brain while being in a dream state. The experience from the unusual dreams was a portal into another world. The dreams and/or nightmares could happen to anyone in their subconscious dream state. I would like to say. It seems as we dream, we have no control over our mind or what our dreams will be. Sometimes you think you have been dreaming for hours or days, not knowing when you will wake up to the real world. I would like to add anyone could write about their dreams. You don’t have to be a novelist.

As an author, my personal life is, I am a retired military, four years—Army Medical Field, combat medic, Korean War, 1950–51. Twenty-two years in the Air Force, supervisor for Flight Surgeon’s Office and Aerospace Medicine, including helicopter rescue. I have three sons, one deceased. For thirty years, I have been a widower.

CHAPTER ONE

INSEPARABLE BEAR AND WOLF

This story is about Frank Sullivan and his wife about their experiences with a bear and a wolf. They lived in a small town of about 2,500 people. Frank, a mechanic, has a mobile gas station with a three-bay auto repair shop that his father and mother left him. The family lived next door to his business on five acres of forestland. Frank liked to walk in the woods on the same trail every morning to keep in shape. One morning, when he was walking on his trail in the woods, he came upon a bear lying next to his walking path. He approached the bear slowly. Frank was now close enough to examine the bear. He can now see the bear was shot and was dead. He noticed a bear cub next to its mother. Frank picked up the bear cub to bring him home, to care for him. When he got home, his family was excited about caring for the cub. They decided to keep the bear in the garage to nurse it. Frank has an idea how to feed the bear cub—by giving him milk, dog food, and fish. This diet will keep the cub’s brain from being carnivorous.

Frank decided to take the bear to the veterinarian and have the bear’s claws declawed to prevent him from hurting the children by accident while playing. Frank’s diet for the bear has been keeping him playful and lovable around the family, he told the vet. The vet told Frank, The bear has a good attitude, disposition and shows no signs of anger when I examined him. So I think, Frank, your diet for the bear was right on track.

The bear is now two months old, likes the children, sleeps in their bedroom, and also likes walking around the house. The children takes the bear into the backyard, which is enclosed. There, the cub lets the children ride on him and play with him. There was still no sign of the bear having a wild side. The bear has dramatically changed the family’s routine.

Frank was taking his early-morning walk routine on the trail when
