I feel as if everyday I find myself thinking that this day is the last of its kind, and if nothing else, that says something about everything.

I never asked about her illnesses... that's not really something I ask about. From what I've picked up, she needs new teeth because of her bad gums, she has a heart condition, and something is wrong with her gallbladder. Her right arm has a huge scar on it from a car accident and she is unable to feel with her right pinky and ring finger, and this has prevented her from being able to do pottery like she used to. Apparently she spent a whole year high on vicodin, she tells me she doesn't remember much of that year, and I do believe she was into some pretty hard stuff when she was a young teenager.
