Worldwise Publications Queensland, Australia For my husband The road less traveled has had a higher toll than we expected, but I wouldn’t have taken it with anyone else. Prologue Skyscrapers swayed like palm fronds in a sea breeze. Fear paralyzed me. Standing was out of the question. I had a death grip on a railing that wasn’t there. My head swam as if I’d swilled a bottle of vodka. No one made a sound, but the tropical air was thick with fear and trepidation. It defied reason that the massive weight of concrete and steel dipped like a tango dancer without crashing to the ground and taking all of us with it. But it didn’t. It just continued to give me close ups of the pavement before flinging me back toward the angry gray green sky.
