In the writing titled "White Wine" written by Sylvia, I felt saddened about her dealing with her mom and it left me feeling worried for her.  I don't even know this girl and I want to help her.  I do understand how she feels about having a parent who deoesn't care but not to that extent.  Yes, the story is written very well and I like how you can actually feel like she does when she says, "She closes the door, but I can still hear her vomiting up her dignity for the hundredth time.  I plug my ears adn clamp my eyes shut, trying not to picture it."  This story is heart wrenching and my prayers go out for this girl.  There is one part "It must be in my blood."  The sad thing is kids do feel this way and end up going down that road.
