"I once was spending time with my grandfather and telling him about how much I loved my little sister and telling him stories about all the funny things she was doing at the time. He listened intently and acted like he was enjoying himself only to later turn it into a conversation about how I needed to lose weight so that I wouldn’t die at an early age and leave my sister by herself. I was about 12 or 13 years old. I cried and he smiled. 'That’s good' is what he said as my eyes filled with tears."
