This is a great story, and it is a shame that there have been no new episodes for a long time.

Rachel is a great character and has a dream lineup of orthodontic appliances. Who wouldn't want a partner with braces, an expander, a Herbst appliance, a tongue crib and headgear? I like how Rachel punished Mike by temporarily converting his Van Beek into a fixed appliance! However, she would probably enjoy seeing Mike with more permanent hardware. I suspect Mike wouldn't be quite as enthusiastic. 

I wonder what 'treatment' Rachel might have next? I think a little headgear upgrade might be in order. Perhaps a stylish Interlandi with an extra facebow and a chin cap. What would other readers like to happen next?

Hi All,

thanks for all your positive respons on the story of Rachel.

Rachel is still alive and I'm working on new adventures. (Un)fortunately I've started a new job recently and don't have much time to write at the moment, but there will be an update in the future :-)

Thanks for the news @s399140.

Delighted to hear that Rachel is still alive
When two people go off on a hike and aren't seen for two years you can't help but worry... 

Hope never dies.
