RE: Who does not listen, feels - The Ink Well-Fiction Prompt # 158

That's a very sad story, @rammargarita. It seems from the beginning Matilde was doomed. One would like to think that is not true. A psychiatrist diagnosed her, but did he help her? Did he give her medication that might have helped control her impulsive behavior?

You write well here. Unfortunately, this may be the path traveled by many. We'd like to turn our faces away from such reality, but that doesn't make it go away.

Thank you for sharing this with us, @rammargarita.
