<\/a>…until you hold a loved one in your arms as they spray their bathroom with poop like a fucking CFL turf sprinkler system<\/em>.<\/p>\n

…until you look up from your William Gibson book (Spook Country), your head immersed in a shiny bright fun future world of 2 years ago, to see some guy starting at you with his finger two knuckles up into his nose. He removes said finger to reveal a wet wad of clotted snot\/blood. Yes, you’re in a downtown emergency room at 2am.<\/p>\n

…until you sit with same loved one, their IV dripping life back into their body, reviving their fluids they pooped out all over an apartment you know you have to go back to clean, listening to a pig being slaughtered in the emergency cubicle next to you. Or at least it sounded like a pig. There was squealing and grunting.<\/p>\n

…until you sit with the same loved one, who regained their personality, their humanity back, and both of you listen to a doctor quiz a woman two cubicles over about her sex life: “Are their pains when you have intercourse? Do you have heavy flow?”<\/p>\n
