In the future, pain is not controlled by pills; it is controlled by people--Painkeepers who take pain from people and endure the pain for them.
Painkeepers have removed the pain of hangovers and even cancer, but one Painkeeper is about to learn about someone who's pain he cannot control.

Mother's Day, Part I of II
From: "Pacific Review" (Volume 20, 2002)

"Mother's Day, Part I" was the first story in a fragmented collection of stories about an Orange County family. I still hope that one day I'll finish it. I knew the footnotes would make a lot of people say 'that's too David Foster Wallace.' I almost considered taking them out just to prevent this from happening, but I knew it needed it. "The Pacific Review" is published by Cal State San Bernardino. This was the leading short story in the Fall 2002 journal. Click here to subscribe to the "Pacific Review."
