Summary
Al principio le costó creerlo. ¿Cómo podía ser? Pues iba en contra de la Biblia; en contra de todo lo que daba por hecho. Siempre había sido varón, así que ¿cómo podía tener órganos femeninos? ¿Y cómo carajo había llegado a los sesenta y tantos sin darse cuenta de eso? No podía ser. Llevaba muchísimos años atendiendo a víctimas de violencia sexual y estaba seguro de que conocía la diferencia entre los hombres y las mujeres. Sabía cuál era.
Bueno, al menos creía que sí.
Siempre había sabido que su… anatomía… no era nada impresionante, y nunca se había desarrollado tanto como sus amigos cuando era adolescente. Pues medía apenas un metro y medio, siempre había sido más chaparro que los otros hombres a su alrededor y se había visto muy joven para su edad, hasta ya en sus sesenta y tantos. No había tenido que rasurarse ni una sola vez. Pero todos somos diferentes y, por lo tanto, estas cosas nunca le habían parecido preocupantes, y nunca les había hecho mucho caso. Menos aún si se tomaba en cuenta su herencia indígena mexicana.

Summary
Of course, Vincent has always known that he isn’t particularly… well endowed, in the same way that, standing at only 5 foot nothing, he’s always been a head shorter than other men around him. He’s also aware that he never developed as much as his peers in his teens, and that he’s always looked noticeably youthful for his age, even now into his mid-60s. And he’s never needed to shave even once in his adult life. But he’s never really given any of this too much thought until now, because he hasn’t seen cause for alarm. Everyone’s different, after all, and none of that had to mean anything. Certainly not when also factoring in his partly Indigenous Mexican heritage.
But this?
Before he really has time to register what’s happening, he throws up every bite of the banana they managed to coax into him back in post-op.
The doctor and nurses assume his nausea is a result of the anaesthesia he was given for his surgery. Vincent doesn’t correct them.
He never eats banana again after that day.*****

Summary
[CURRENTLY ON HIATUS]
In the aftermath of Jack’s car accident, both he and his family have to learn to adjust to a new reality. The accident has left him with a disability he wasn't prepared for, and at the same time as he's coming to terms with this, he and Roger are settling into their new home in a new town. A town which, unbeknownst to them, holds a nasty surprise for Roger. And as if that wasn't enough, yet another curveball that fall pushes Jack to finally start confronting the demons from his past.
Sarah, too, finds her past catching up with her after another personal tragedy of her own. And with her family by her side, she too finally begins to work on healing.
As various members of the family begin confronting and dealing with their pain, the road to recovery seems long. But with each other's help, and with a new millennium right around the corner, things are starting to look up.

Summary
Now that Jack and Roger's relationship is settling for the long haul just as Jack turns 50, he seems to have reached something of a turning point, and appears to be doing better than he was. But when a certain someone from his past suddenly comes calling after all these years, bringing back everything Jack has tried to run from his entire adult life, he finds himself backsliding in more ways than one. And Roger and Sarah are both concerned.
On top of all of that, another challenge lies ahead too, when what should be a routine doctor's visit sets off a chain of events that threatens to tear the Wilkins family apart for good, and challenges Jack's entire identity and sense of self.
With his world turned completely upside down, Jack struggles to find ground under his feet again. As always, this affects everyone around him too. And as always, Sarah is the one who has to scramble to keep everything together.
