Two very different events took place on this day: First, Gary Jones took Richard McCarthy to Hole in the Wall, an isolated lodge in the Jefferson Tract from Dreamcatcher. Second, Nick Andros from The Stand would be celebrating his 46th birthday today. He was born in the town of Caslin, Nebraska. Several months before he was born, his parents were in an automobile accident, the shock of which gave his father a fatal heart-attack. Its implied that the same accident caused fetal injuries to Nick that resulted in his deafness and muteness. Nick lived with his mother until the age of 9, when she was killed walking across an intersection. Sent to an orphanage, unable to communicate, and bullied by the other children, Nick retreated within himself, until a fellow deaf-mute named Rudy Sparkman forced him out of his shell, and taught him to read and write. When the orphanage went bankrupt a teenaged Nick ran away, struggling to earn GED credits, and taking odd manual jobs to get by.
