Mama took me back to the coroner.

“Are you on a trip?” he asked.

“I’m going to Montana,” I said, confused.

He gave me a shot and sent me home with a bottle of thorazine.

Did anyone else notice this part? This was not a doctor’s office. It was the coroner’s. Most people regardless of age associate the coroner’s office with death. He gave a medication given to schizophrenics for trauma.

The trauma still never addressed. And if I am correct and it is still the same in Louisiana all these years later, Louisiana is still a state, perhaps the only one, where the county coroner, can adjudicate someone into mental health.
