“I thought my mom had gone totally nuts, but she hadn’t. She had finally, through her faith, found a way to voice herself and stand up to me; to share how she felt about what was going on; to voice her concern, fear, and worry; to state that her son had been taken from her and that she wanted him back, and to say she was not going to stand aside and let him be besieged any longer.”

Cynan Jones
“There was more to what she said than beautifully bad grammar. It belied her logic. Since she was very tiny she'd always thought the best thing to do with any pain or worry was to go to bed.

Then you got out of bed and left it sleeping, so it didn't hurt you anymore.”
Cynan Jones, The Long Dry
