her sister has a very similar story.

they mentioned head injuries to her. she had an er visit when she was little, but from my quick google, unlikely to be the cause. besides, her sister took way more tumbles than she did.

can my world just stop spinning, tho? lots of good things happening, but i feel like i am on an ice flow or something the way things keep shifting.
