A Dream with Three Messages

We encountered Lanalina through her Facebook post. She bemoaned her fatigue and the difficulty of taking care of two children alone as her hemoglobin levels continued to sink below normal. After some private messaging, we went to clean her apartment and care for her children while she took a nap.…

Whatcha Try’n ta Sell Me, Bro?

“Hey, try drinking this boiled forest-leaf-drink that smells like sewage; it healed my grandma from liver cancer.” Sure, I’ll give it a try. Gulp! I, the big Asian guy who buys vegetables for the restaurant every day, forget to buy something at the supermarket. But when I return and go…
