Also like most people I medicate and move on with my day, because I need to work to make money to buy things. The people who dispense the advice of stay home if you don’t feel well, obviously don’t work…
My brother inherited the family piano; the one we all played, sang around, and loved. In many ways it was the center of our family story.
