" 'okay', I said, respecting and appreciating the offer, also knowing that I would do no such thing. I dont call people for help. Its not because of the way I was raised, at least I dont think so; its the way I was made.
Johanna once said that if I were drowning in Dark Score lake, where we have a summer home, I would die silently fifty feet out from the public beach rather than yell for help. Its not a question of love or affection. I can give those and I can take them. I feel pain like anyone else. I need to touch and be touched.
But if someone asks me, 'Are you alright?', I cant answer 'no'. I cant say 'help me'."
