"I could already tell there were things happening deep inside me that were irreversible. Is there any scarier word than 'irreversible'? It's a hiss of a word, full of side effects and utilations. Severe tire damage - no backing up. Falling in love with Renee felt that way. I felt strange things going on inside me, and I knew that these weren't things I would recover from. These were changes that were shaping the way things were going to be, and I wouldn't find out how until later. Irreversible."
