LOVE AND DEATH ON 86
by Merle Hoffman
On The Issues MagazineVolume 4, Winter/Spring 1985
I am overhearing a phone conversation - the tone of the speaker is intimate - concerned - loving - parental... long complicated words are being spelled out - RETINITIS - CHEMOTHERAPY - LYMPHADEN0PATHY - repeated again and again.
The voice on the other side of the phone was BOBBY'S - and he had missed his appointment "Is your lover with you now - does he know you will probably have to be going into the hospital?"
