She could hear the bad news rushing at her, and herself tied to the track while the immense black wheels threatened and the whistle screamed, helpless.
In the next instant, Mr. Thirkell might have cried, or been tempted to cry, "Ladies, be seated! You can stay here at the Restorium for seven more days, can't you? A little delay won't matter, will it, in the end? You've waited a lifetime. Only a few more days. Bellowes forging ahead, alone, brandishing her fist like a toy hammer. Thirkell looked into the old ladies' eyes, a missionary among albino cannibals. She was a small container, but now all the seething pressures that had been built up over long years came steaming through the delicate vents of her body.
Her cheeks became incandescent. With a wail that was like a melancholy factory whistle, Mrs. Bellowes ran forward and hung to him, almost by her teeth, like a summer-maddened Spitz. She would not and never could let go, until he died, and the other women followed, jumping and yapping like a pound let loose on its trainer, the same one who had petted them and to whom they had squirmed and whined joyfully an hour before, now milling about him, creasing his sleeves and frightening the Egyptian serenity from his gaze. Bellowes, feeling like Madame Lafarge.

We've waited long enough to see the ship. Every day he's put us off, every day we've waited, now let's see. They burst through the back of the stage and out a door, like a flood, bearing the poor man with them into a shed, and then out, quite suddenly, into an abandoned gymnasium. The rocket was something like a battered copper pot. There were a thousand bulges and rents and rusty pipes and dirty vents on and in it. The ports were clouded over with dust, resembling the eyes of a blind hog. Everyone wailed a little sighing wail.
Thirkell tried to break and run, but a thousand possum traps closed on him from every side. He withered. Everybody walked around in circles like blind mice. There was a confusion and a weeping that lasted for five minutes as they went over and touched the Rocket, the Dented Kettle, the Rusty Container for God's Children. She stepped up into the askew doorway of the rocket and faced everyone.
I don't know how you feel about it, all of you, but the reason all of us came is because I'm eighty-five, and you're eighty-nine, and you're seventy-eight, and all of us are nudging on toward a hundred, and there's nothing on Earth for us, and it doesn't appear there's anything on Mars either. We all expected not to breathe much more air or crochet many more doilies or we'd never have come here. So what I have to propose is a simple thing—to take a chance. She reached out and touched the rusted hulk of the rocket.
We paid for our trip. And we're going to take our trip! Everyone rustled and stood on tiptoes and opened an astonished mouth. Thirkell began to cry. He did it quite easily and very effectively. Bellowes, ignoring him. Thirkell stopped crying long enough to say, "But it was all a fake.

I don't know anything about space. He's not out there, anyway. I lied. I don't know where He is, and I couldn't find Him if I wanted to. And you were fools to ever take my word on it. Bellowes, "we were fools. I'll go along on that. But you can't blame us, for we're old, and it was a lovely, good and fine idea, one of the loveliest ideas in the world.

Oh, we didn't really fool ourselves that we could get nearer to Him physically. It was the gentle, mad dream of old people, the kind of thing you hold onto for a few minutes a day, even though you know it's not true. So, all of you who want to go, you follow me in the ship. She stepped into the ship, and after a moment, the other old ladies pressed forward.
Thirkell, windmilling his arms frantically, was nevertheless pressed through the port, and in a minute the door slammed shut. Thirkell was strapped into the navigator's seat, with everyone talking at once and holding him down. The special helmets were issued to be fitted over every gray or white head to supply extra oxygen in case of a leakage in the ship's hull, and at long last the hour had come and Mrs. Bellowes stood behind Mr. Thirkell and said, "We're ready, sir. He said nothing. He pleaded with them silently, using his great, dark, wet eyes, but Mrs.
Bellowes shook her head and pointed to the control. Thirkell morosely, and pulled a switch. Everybody fell.

The rocket went up from the planet Mars in a great fiery glide, with the noise of an entire kitchen thrown down an elevator shaft, with a sound of pots and pans and kettles and fires boiling and stews bubbling, with a smell of burned incense and rubber and sulphur, with a color of yellow fire, and a ribbon of red stretching below them, and all the old women singing and holding to each other, and Mrs. Bellowes crawling upright in the sighing, straining, trembling ship.
Bellowes felt herself lifted and thrown about dizzily, like a doll. She heard the great screamings and saw the flashes of bodies sailing by her in fragments of metal and powdery light. The ship disintegrated into a million parts, and the old ladies, all one hundred of them, were flung straight on ahead with the same velocity as the ship. As for Mr. Thirkell, for some reason of trajectory, perhaps, he had been blown out the other side of the ship. Bellowes saw him falling separate and away from them, screaming, screaming.
And she knew where he was going. He was going to be burned and roasted and broiled good, but very good.

This app is a great idea. It made my son feel so much at ease before his operation. He knew what was going to happen when he got to the hospital and what everything was. It is also great that they can see all round the rooms to. It looked the same as the picture when we got there so that made him feel happy because it was like he had already been there before.
Hi Anne, Thank you for the feedback! It's really great to hear that Little Journey worked for you and your son. We're so happy everything went well and hope you're all relaxing at home! Such a fab little app really helped my daughter 5 understand what was going to happen and she went in not scared or anything I think it was partly down to this app will definitely use it again in the future if the kids have to have a op. This is a good app to help your child understand different aspects of going into hospital for surgery especially with the 3D viewer.
Only draw back is how you progress from one screen to the next, and when finding items in 3D mode how do you select them.
