She’d been just like every other woman. Weak. She’d thought she could handle it, the sight, the smell, the sounds of death. That expression of realisation, the screams, the gaping wounds, the bite marks, the scrapes caused by the knife, the pink quick beneath the woman’s ripped fingernails, bleeding, and causing the trussed, bruised and battered twenty-three year old victim to cry out in further agony when Pete Norris, with a smile, literally poured salt on the wounds. The bruised face and cut lips, teeth removed with a pair of pliers, before, with wrists bound behind her to a tree, he’d raped her mouth. Then her cunt. And finally her ass.

I say versions because most of us have felt sadness, shock and anger before for many different reasons but these emotions take on whole new forms when they are tied to the death of a loved one.

The only thing worse than losing someone you love is losing yourself. When my Uncle Michael passed away at the end of my fifth grade year, despite being so young and not even able to fully grasp what was going on, I felt as though I lost a part of me that I would never be able to replace.

Due to being obese and the many health complications that resulted from his excessive weight gain, he was homebound for his last few years of life, but no matter how many lemons
