Mom gets red sometimes. Doctors say the redness is serious and they give her a bimonthly injection to control it. The shots hurt her quite a bit and she has trouble walking (or even driving) afterward. It is illogical, and thus hard to beleive, that simple redness in the face could be a harbinger for death. I'm not a doctor though, so I guess I wouldnt understand such a complex conclusion.

Yet, to be honest, I suppose I do actually have some sort of abstract understanding of it. And thats okay, because a full understanding implies something I dont want to happen. In fact, I'll do anything so that does not happen.
