I’m Sick and Tired
I’m sick. And I am tired of being sick. For about six months now, I am sick. I have been in and out of the hospital and couldn’t quite keep up with my medical bills. I had become a regular with my doctor’s office I can now literally distinguish her breath from the nurses. Along [...]
