    (Fake sleeping) Oh, sorry. I just fell asleep, while standing. Wow, that’s super strange. It must be because I didn’t get a good night’s sleep last night.

Well, maybe we should change that so myself and all the other…

    Nomadic We were just a couple of kids who worked in a motel in California, Barstow. The motel hadn’t altered since the 1970’s and nor did its furniture inside. Very few people came by and if they did, it was only for a night. As for us, we were just a couple of kids who lived by the pool cleaning up after strangers in order to pay our way towards college. We hated our summer job, but it’s what kept us together. “I want to get out of this town. I want to get out there and see something new,”…

    I am a sister. The day I became one was the first day I left the house without a doll in tow. When we arrived at the NICU, I immediately pressed my little nose and palms against the window and peered in with a bit of confusion. Three years old and a couple feet tall, I expected her to resemble one of my dolls, but that wasn’t the case. My doll wore dresses, not cords on her body and face. Mommy and Daddy gently rested their hands on my shoulders; exhaustion hung from their eyes. “Meagan is…
