Dad said he wants to be a sexy pearl diver  2 of 3 / View all

Dad said he wants to be a sexy pearl diver. He says he wants to swim in the ocean. He just doesn't want to die doing it. But Mom said he'd die if he fell off the bed. Dad is not going to get out of this room. I think that. Mom calls us to supper. My stomach is ready to start boiling. She goes to get a cup. I hear Dad's voice down the hall. He's asking for something. Mom comes back in and says she thinks he needs a trach. She puts the phone on the side table and hands him a can of soup. She looks at me.
