Dorothy opened her eyes. In fear, she glanced around the hospital room. " Auntie Em, where am I?".

Emily quietly walked to the edge of the bed. She knelt down. " It's your Aunt Em dear".

Dorothy looked around. " Where's Toto?".

" With your Uncle Henry". She frowned. " We were so worried about you".

" Where am I Aunt Em?".

" You are in a hospital room dear". She frowned again. " How do you feel?".

" I had a strange dream". A frightened look came over her face. " You, Uncle Henry and Toto were there".

" You need to rest now". She smiled. " Get your strength up".

Dorothy gave her Aunt a sad stare. " Don't you believe me Aunt Em?".

" Of course I do".

" Do you know what I kept thinking to myself while I was gone?".

Emily shook her head. " What's that dear?".

Dorothy gave her Aunt a big hug. " There's no place like home".
