The Monster You Created
When I was seven, my constant vomiting got so bad that my mother took me to court and accused me of being born dangerous.
If the charge stuck, I would be stripped of my family ties and sent straight to prison.
Everyone said my mother was overreacting.
"He's just a kid. Kids get sick. As his mother, you should be more understanding."
But the moment the evidence was shown, the room went dead quiet.
My mother had drunk herself into a stomach bleed just to land a contract, and the second she got home, I threw up all over it.
The deal was voided, and she lost her job on the spot.
On my sister, Ophelia Sowle's, birthday, I threw up all over her cake right in front of all her classmates.
