everything you know will change. (it will happen to you).

i understand why Bob, playfully and seriously, believed himself to be a superhero.

i feel as though a mutilated doppleganger of myself is inside me, doing everything it can to debilitate me. it's ME, yet it's not.

people with chronic illness, they often think it's a part of themselves that's doing the damage. it can be, but at the same time, it's the disease... but what are you if not part of the disease, particularly if it's genetic?

i... just like to talk to people about these things. it makes me feel human to listen to people and make them feel better by just being me. is this the feeling that nurses and doctors get when they heal and treat people, and it works out, somehow?
