“One time in downtown Portland OR, I stepped on a needley rig and it went into my right big toe. You know that feeling when you think you cought the AIDs… the darkness creeps in from all directions and you almost fall over from the realization that bad things happen to people out of the black and blue. But you make it through and life goes on…”
