Victims of a loved one's death will feel physically drained.

Victims of a loved one's death may resort to violence.

Victims of a loved one's death may drink too much, take too many pills, hallucinate and see their loved one's image.


Dead. Dead. Dead. Dead.

That is what Mikey is. That is what I have to deal with on a daily basis. His image, the one that never leaves my mind. My mother, who drinks endlessly, because now two of her family members are six feet underneath.

Because he is dead, and for some strange reason, I am still here.


GerBert. No Waycest involved, I promise.
