In fact, Bad Company's actually in it.

I'm gonna take my kids to the Spinal Irritation all-ages show. Asthma's opening for them.

$200+ a month, with insurance.

But my mom remembers people blaming her for my asthma, even doctors.

And then there's the autistic spectrum crazy shit, which isn't even in my mom's genes. They blamed my mom for that too.

The crazy I got from my dad's dad. My grandpa was functional as a rocket engineer but his personal life was always a flaming catastrophe, even though he was considered second sanest among his siblings. (First sanest, a no-nonsense Army nurse.) The rest of his siblings were not always functional in ordinary society, but more functional family kept them out of the asylums.

Lucky for me, there are now meds for that too.
