In his third encounter, strangers made the sign of a cross and pointed at him. During all of this, Jonathan had no clue why these people were acting in this strange way, nor did he have a notion to question why. Even though he is oblivious to the reasons for their behavior, he blindly continues on the path the strangers warned him not to go on.

The New Monkey’s Paw Once on a dreadful night a man named Shmerbert had a dreadful fright…. We start with a man named Shmerbert who just bought a new house. When he walked in with the doctor who so painstakingly took care of him all he could think was wow I have some work to do. The floor was cracked, the walls falling down, the ceiling dripping wet like a faucet, the stairs unclimbable, and the smell of death hung in the air. “Why did you buy this place?” Dr. Zaveri asked. “It was fairly cheap

The cancer had now spread out of control. Jack, about 28, was in constant pain, and his doctor had prescribed
to see a doctor. Surprised! Think about the last time you wanted to take an appointment for a doctor and had to wait for 2 or more weeks to see one. Don't you think if you had a common cold, it would automatically die out with some rest and home care.
