Damn. The pain that never numbs.

Each time I swallow my saliva it hurts like mofo.

No matter what I do, swallow harder, drink water, lozenges, sleep. It hurts like mofo. I've got about 28 hours to recover. If not I'm in trouble.



Right now I'm wondering about how people fare on their deathbeds. Some terrible illness. When each breath is so painful. How do they keep their optimism up? They wouldn't let go, would they? What would I be like if I were like them?


I just realize we all swallow our saliva once every 5 to 10 seconds.

Each time I swallow I cringe, my face contorts. You can see me bare my teeth and squinting.

Rage cannot numb this pain either.
