-The Moon in the Door-

Edit: wow, haven't even thought of this story for three years and suddenly I get a DD for it! Thanks so much for the sudden attention and responses: it means a lot. If any of y'all like my writing, you can check out my wattpad here!

So guys, "Keeping Things Whole" has kind of been dead for awhile. I don't know what to do with it and I'm not passionate about it any more. But I have a good feeling about this new draft: Shiloh and Mel (not sure if that will still be her name) are in it, it's just a different plot. So I apologize for that, but I'm happy with how this is turning out so far.

When Shiloh Tucker was born, his life expectancy was that of any other child, until he was diagnosed with a congenial heart defect as an infant. But after seventeen years of being told he would die, Shiloh Tucker is very much alive, with one little catch: after his heart failed him in infancy, his brain lost too much oxygen in the occipital lobe. So in short, he's certainly kicking, but he has been legally blind since his fourth week of life.
Compromise. That’s what life’s about, isn’t it?
Shiloh doesn't see it that way- he doesn't like it one bit. But his lack of sight certainly never held him back from a good fistfight, and three expulsions and a broken nose later, Shiloh Tucker is being sent to live with his estranged father's relatives in Nantucket, Massachusetts, where he just might find that there's more to sight than simply seeing.
