He said it was horrible. His wife was a different person “it was like she was somebody else”. With that the walls and the ceiling just seemed to close in. She was talking but he could not hear what she was saying. He could see her mouth opening and closing. He could hear a noise, like the distant sea. He wanted everything to stop. He wanted everything to slow down. He then reached out and grabbed the piece of wood. The attack on her followed.! Y$ ~8 w% i- H$ T0 ^0 r0 C: O6 P8 E
