The girl walked through the doorway slouched over with a sad look on her face. “Tina, what’s the matter?”
She handed her mom two pieces of paper; a printout about her doctor’s visit and a prescription for new glasses. Looking quickly to the printout she saw that Tina was found to have myopic vision. “Well that’s not so bad. It just means you are nearsighted. We can go to the store and get you some really pretty frames.”
“Do I get to pick out which ones we get?”
“Within my budget, yes.”
Suddenly things were looking up for Tina.
