Dr. Crane's House
Dr. Crane lived in a beautiful mansion with his beautiful family. It was the perfect life for a young doctor to have. The only problem was that he was in the beginning stages of a degenerative hip disease that would eventually put him in a wheelchair. His wife was really supportive and told him that she would help around the house, make everything accessible to him, be his assistant if he needed it, she was his rock. Still, there was something that he couldn't over come. He didn't want to be cared for, he wanted to stand on his own two legs.
And so, with the encouragement of some new friends, he began some unconventional experiments to develop a cure. It began simply, but then got more and more extreme. Soon, he moved the more extreme experiments to his house to be away from prying eyes. Nothing got past his devoted wife, however, and she noticed the change in him. It finally got to the point where she feared that he had lost his sanity. She told him that she was taking their two sons and leaving.
Dr. Crane was shocked, then indignant, then furious. He refused to believe anything other than the woman was insane. And that is what he told people when they asked. Though, sometimes he would slip and tell them that she passed and that the boys were in boarding school.
The experiments continued.
