She contacted him by letter and he wrote back.
Grierson down through a website that keeps track of sex offenders. She wrote a letter to give to Lily, but when Lily returned to school after the summer break, she was obviously pregnant and Linda did not give her the letter. Linda had always been interested in Lily's life, but she wanted to intervene on Mr. Soon, rumor circulated that he had impregnated another girl in her class, Lily Holburn. Linda kissed him one day, but he did not respond. That same year, a teacher at Linda's school died and Mr. What Linda never said during the trial was that Patra seemed to be trying to tell her something, and Linda felt she was either thanking Linda for going to get Tylenol or asking her to get help. Leo and Patra cited their Christian Science ideology as the reason they did not seek medical treatment for Paul, and they were acquitted of any responsibility for his death. Paul died that night.Ī trial ensued and Linda was called to testify because she was one of the few people who had interacted with Paul during those months. Patra agreed and Linda wandered around town for awhile, but never found a way to ask anyone else for help. At one point, she offered to go to town to get some Tylenol, as if that might help Paul. By the time that trip was over, Linda was worried about Paul. During the trip, Leo began to question Linda's core beliefs, apparently in an effort to sway her to his train of thought. Leo arrived at the lake house for an extended visit and asked Linda to accompany them on an overnight trip to Duluth. She discovered that Patra had begun putting him in a diaper, especially at night, and later learned that incontinence was another symptom. She noticed small details, such as discolorations of his skin and a sweetish odor of his breath, that she later learned were signs of the edema that took his life. Linda initially felt that Paul's health, including a breathlessness, was just part of his makeup. Paul felt the same about Linda, often lashing out at her when he was tired or angry.
Their relationship was complicated and she sometimes did not like him very much. Linda quit her job at a local diner and began to watch Paul. Patra asked Linda to keep Paul away from their lake house for a few hours each afternoon while she worked at editing Leo's writing. Paul's father, Leo, was in Hawaii where he worked. She soon met his mother, Patra, who barely seemed to be an adult.
Linda Furston was a teenager when a four-year-old named Paul moved into their neighborhood.
