I have lived most my life with chronic inflammation and constant pain with immediate diarrhea.

All my life, my immediate response to emotional pain has been to make jokes. Lots of jokes.

I have lived most of my life with the conviction that I don't dream, because I never could retrieve a dream.

I'd lived by quotations, practically all my life.

The loss of my father was the most traumatic event in my life - I can't forget the pain.

If there is one constant to my life, it is that you cannot tell me 'no.'
