Does anyone remember Gerri Santoro?

3. No. And we should. Thanks for reminding. Do remember an older sister of best friend who,

in her early twenties, had to go to Mexico.
She returned to be hospitalized with massive bleeding and infection. The police went to her hospital room to interview her. They also questioned her doctor who had hospitalized her.
She did recover and somehow the doctor’s intervention put a stop to charges. Also, this wasn’t the Bible Belt.
I could barely believe this had happened in my own time.
But then I never thought to see where we are now. Headed back there again.
My grandmother told me about the coat hanger and downing straight liquor, jumping off the refrigerator days.
