I was born in 1996 in Texas. There were complications. My mom and I both nearly died. I’m not sure of all the details, since I was a baby. It was medically necessary that my mom have a hysterectomy afterwards. Even so, she needed both my father and her father to sign off on it before they’d go through with the procedure. So, two male relatives had to give consent before she could take care of her own health.

If that isn't love, I don't know what is.
