So I'm just here for trying it. I have a lot of resistance to things like this, but I came to these a couple years ago. Well, I was forced to come and I guess it, um... I guess it helped. So, um... My mom was old and she wasn't all together there at the end. And we were pretty much estranged before that, so it really wasn't a huge blow. But I did love her. And she didn't have an easy life. She had ], which became extreme at the end. And ]. And my father died when I was a baby from starvation, um, because he had ] and he starved himself, which I'm sure was just as pleasant as it sounds.
