Tired
Are you tired of blood draws and ultrasounds and dependency on hospitals? Imagine being dependent on hospitals for life. Blood draws every week. Immunity scares and wearing a mask everywhere. Injections after injections. Weekly drips after weekly drips. Getting so tired and sick and crazed, and tight in the chest, spasm until you can breathe or eat or wash yourself.
Imagine what you would feel like, with one boob and a scar across your back.

Dear Zhan,
It has been so long since I wrote you a letter. I miss you, even though you’ve just gone off today for work. I wish that you could take a month off work, not because I think we’d be more productive at home necessarily, but so I could feel this time was not taken from us, that it was different somehow. We’ve never both been off work at the same time. Imagine that, that most people who are married never have the luxury of being away from work at the same time.
