She never heard anything after the word ‘Sissy’. I hadn’t even realized that I’d said it. I’ve called her Elaine (dur) and sis, but not Sissy. Sissy was my special name for her ( Read more... )

I don’t know why I allow people to continue to disappoint me. I have a bumper sticker on my car that reads: losing faith in humanity one person at a time. And yet with each fresh disappointment, I’m saddened further. Four weeks ago, my sister fell on the pavement while out walking.
