Yesterday I had to drive an hour out into the middle of nowhere to a family’s house. When I got there they didn’t want to give up the body, they wanted me to bring my “equipment” and stuff her so she can stay on the couch. It took over an hour to work with them on 1: why that’s not possible and 2: how to let go. Eventually they let me take her.
*side note: she had the coolest tattoo, it was bars of music that wrapped around her whole body like ivy. I wish I could have taken a picture.
