Chapter 4

Saturday, September 18, 1976

I was laying awake, thinking about what we had talked about, long after my two beautiful lovers were asleep. I was becoming a little frustrated because the same thoughts kept chasing themselves through my mind. Finally, agitated with the whole thing, I thought, "Why the fuck are we experiencing telepathy?"

"Suddenly, I knew. I knew it as clearly as I knew my own name (both my names actually). We were receiving more blood flow to a portion of the brain that had no known function."

"How did I know that?" I wondered.

"Oh well, I wish I could see what was causing the additional blood flow."

I could immediately see, behind my closed eyelids, a portion of the brain and a blood vessel leading into it. Somehow I knew this blood vessel was larger than in normal people, and that the telepathy was triggered by a state of excitement because of an increase in blood pressure.

I thought about this for a couple of minutes then thought, "I wonder if my brain could cause this vessel to increase in size?"

I knew that to do something like that, I'd have to be in a very excited condition. I slipped out of bed and quickly got dressed without awakening Bonnie or Beth. It was now over two hours after midnight so I knew there would be very little traffic.

I got in my new Suburban. I was on the freeway within a few minutes going toward San Jose. I let the speed start to creep up, feeling the tension and excitement build. When the speedometer said 120 MPH, I tried my experiment.

"I want the blood vessel I was looking at earlier to be permanently 50% larger than it was this afternoon," I thought.

I didn't feel anything happening, an after a few more miles I thought the same thing. I still didn't feel any change, so I reluctantly took the next exit and started home.

When I went back into the bedroom, Bonnie raised herself on one elbow and looked at me. She didn't move her mouth, but I distinctly heard, "What the hell is he doing dressed?"

"I wanted to try an experiment, Sweety. Just go back to sleep. I'll be back as soon as I go to the bathroom."

Again, I did not see her mouth move, but I heard, "Go back to sleep, Hell. I'm awake now. I'm going to jump his bones."

"Sweety, as much as I enjoy you jumping my bones, I'd rather wait until morning if you don't mind. I'm all keyed up and I don't think I'd be much good to you."

"Mike, why are you answering me when I didn't say anything?"

"But... you said you were awake and were going to jump my bones."

"I thought it but I didn't say it. What's going on, Mike?"

"My God... It must have worked!" I went on to explain to her the insights I had earlier and my experiment to increase the size of the blood vessel. After chewing me out for driving that fast, she calmed down enough to ask some questions.

"Are you saying you can read what I'm thinking all of the time now?"

"I don't know, Bonnie. I certainly heard what you were thinking when I came into the room."

"Okay, I'm going to shut up talking and think something at you. See if you can pick it up."

"Okay, and I love you too, Bonnie."

"That was an easy one I guess. Try this one."

"Okay, you thought 'and all the boards did shrink'."

"Well... I know you didn't come up with that one by accident. Are you picking up anything besides my surface thoughts?"

"No, but I haven't tried either. I really don't want to invade your privacy."

"Privacy, Hell, Mike. We're about as close as any two people can get. You've even licked my asshole. Your father didn't do that in all the years we were married. If you'd like to look at my innermost thoughts and fantasies, you have my permission. Any time, any place."

"Just relax for a minute or two, Bonnie. Let me see what I can see."

"My God, Bonnie! Why didn't you tell someone about the lump in your breast? You've been worried about it. Maybe we could have helped. You need to see a doctor."

"I know! I know," Bonnie sobbed. "I should have told you a week ago, when I found it. I was trying to get up the courage to tell you and Beth and to call a doctor, but I was and am scared, Mike. We've all found something good and I don't want to lose it."

"I don't want to lose it either, my love. Maybe there's something we can do about the lump though. First, though, would you like to be able to do the mind thing I've been doing, reliably?"

"Yes, I guess so. How does that have anything to do with my lump though?"

"Well, I changed the size of a blood vessel in my brain just using my mind. If I can do that, then maybe I could remove cancer cells as well. If we get it so you can do the same thing, we should have a better shot at getting rid of your lump."

Bonnie brightened considerably and said, "Okay, let's try it. What do we have to do?"

"I'm not sure. I just visualized the blood vessel in my brain and told myself I wanted it to be 50% larger. I had excited myself by driving fast, so my blood pressure was up and I could have the power to do it."

"Now that you can do it all the time, can you visual the vessel in my brain and tell it to get larger?"

"I don't know, but let's give it a try."

We looked deeply into each other's eyes, and I concentrated on the area of Bonnie's brain that we wanted to have increased blood flow. When I closed my eyes, I could see the area and see the vessel with the blood flowing through it. The blood vessel was not as large in Bonnie as it had been in me. I concentrated on the vessel and thought, "I want this vessel to be twice as large as it was yesterday."

I stayed concentrating on her brain, and I could actually see the vessel growing. "Do you feel anything different?" I asked her.

"No, not really," She responded, a look of disappointment coming to her face.

"I didn't either at first. I'm going to clear my mind and think of one thing. See if you can tell me what I'm thinking."

She waited a few seconds and smiled. "I know you love me and Beth. We both love you too."

Bonnie paused another couple of seconds then said, "It's so amazingly clear. When you think something, it's like I'm hearing it with my ears. It's not audible though. This is amazing."

"Yes, it is. When you probe someone for their underlying thoughts it is a bit different. You don't hear the words, it's just like you grasp the concept without needing words."

"So, what do I do about my lump?"

"First off, show me where it is so I can feel it."

"You're just wanting to feel Mommy's tit, you nasty thing," Bonnie laughed. I could tell she was relaxing already.

"Yes, but Mommy has such pretty tits," I told her. "Now show me, woman."

Bonnie pulled my hand to her breast and started moving my fingers around. I felt it almost at once. It was about the size of a marble and spongy hard.

"Okay, now close your eyes and tell yourself you want to see the lump in your breast."

Bonnie concentrated for a few seconds then said, "I can see it. It's an ugly thing, Mike."

"Sweety, I'm going to look into your mind and see if I can see it too."

Bonnie didn't say anything, so I looked into her mind. She was concentrating on the lump and I could see it clearly.

"Now, Sweety, tell yourself you want the cells in the lump to die, and you want your body to adsorb the dead cells and excrete them through normal excretion."

Bonnie concentrated again. Almost immediately I could see the lump start to shrink. Within five minutes, it was gone. Neither of us said a word during this time. I don't think either of us could have.

Finally, I asked, "May I feel your lovely breasts again?"

Bonnie smiled and nodded. It was gone. The lump is gone! "My God! Sweety, the damned thing is gone," I shouted!

Bonnie's smile lighted the entire city as she knocked my hand out of the way and started her own examination.

"It is gone," she almost whispered.

"What's gone?" Beth asked. "What's all the commotion about? I'm trying to sleep here."

Bonnie explained to her everything that had gone on as I held my wonderful lover with the fixed booby and stroked her hair.

Of course, Beth wanted us to "fix" her brain too, so we repeated the process we used on Bonnie with Beth. Beth's blood vessel was more the size of mine, maybe even a little larger, so we went with the 50% increase on her.

After Beth was up to speed, we had a mental conversation between the three of us that blew us all away. Thoughts passed back and forth much faster than words and always came out as we meant them to. We experimented a little and found we could also send and receive feelings, sights and smells. It was wonderful.

<Bonnie, there's one thing I want you to do as soon as possible, > I told her. <I want you to tell your mind to look for other cells like those in the lump in your breast. If you have them, you should get rid of them.>

<I was thinking the same thing, Honey. It wouldn't hurt for you and Beth to do the same thing.>

<Mom, Mike, I was just thinking. If we can make cancer cells go away, could we also make something like a bad heart well again?>

<I think we could, Sweety, > I told her. <Maybe even repair things like a broken bone.>

<If that's the case, Mike, Why would we ever have to die?>

Her question totally flabbergasted me. I think it must have done the same thing to Bonnie. We all just looked at each other, I at least was a little scared from the implications.

Finally, I managed to shape a coherent thought. <I'm not sure, Beth. I don't think we have enough information. We probably need to do a little experimentation to see what we can do. We really don't know what we'd have to do to stop or reverse the aging process.>

<Well, from what you told me, you were pretty general in what Mom told her body to do to get rid of the cancer cells. Maybe we just need to tell our body to make and keep itself as it was when we were in the best condition of our life.>

<You and I are young enough, Beth, that we'd need to let our bodies mature a little before we did something like that. Bonnie/Mom could actually try it now. Are you game to try something like that, Bonnie?>

<Yeah, I guess I could try. I was just thinking about when I was in the best shape of my life. I think it was when I was eighteen. I was a cheerleader. My breasts were full grown, I had a slim waist, and my hips were just a little smaller than they are now. We exercised a lot for the cheerleading, and I could run five miles while hardly breaking a sweat. My muscle tone was excellent and I didn't have these disgusting stretch marks that you guys gave me.>

<Wow! I wish I had known you then.>

<Maybe you'll get the chance, > she giggled. <Should I try it now?>

<It's almost 6:00 AM, > I said, <maybe you should wait until we get up in the morning. I think we should all try to get some sleep right now.>

<I'll agree with that, > Beth said. <I was sleeping nicely when you guys woke me up. If it'd been something important, I wouldn't have minded so much, but all you wanted to do was cause me to be able to read minds and maybe live forever.>

We all laughed at that, then snuggled in for some much needed rest.

It was nearly noon when I woke up the next morning. Beth's head was on my left shoulder and she was snuggled close. It was the smell of coffee that awakened me, and it was close by.

As my eyes began to focus, I could see that Bonnie had set two cups on the night stand and was wafting the delicious fragrance toward Beth and I. I did a double take. Yes, it was Bonnie, but she was like no Bonnie I had ever seen before. She was absolutely gorgeous!

<You did it, > I said. <You are definitely the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in either of my lives.>

<Thank you, kind sir, > She said with a little curtsey. <Yes, I did it. I've been up almost two hours. It was a very interesting experience.>

I beckoned her to me, and she slid in beside me. <How interesting? I asked.
