What's Wrong?

Reading about Rain reminded me that I want to donate blood more often (I have an appetite today). Reading g about Alex broke my heart about the gymnasts and that evil ‘doctor'. Adriana's story was for me an exercise in empathy, it can be hard to have compassion for those with addiction or SUD (substance use disorder) especially when they endanger their children. I have to take a breath and remind myself of my own struggles and be thankful that my preferences are for things a tad less harmful and that choice can be illusory, that she didn't choose her parentage or her depression etc.

I also appreciate Williams' inclusive language and mindset throughout the book.
