When
you
go
into
the
ER,
one
of
the
first
things
they
ask
you
to
do
is
rate
your
pain
on
a
scale
of
one
to
ten,
and
from
there
they
decide
which
drugs
to
use
and
how
quickly
to
use
them.
I'd
been
asked
this
question
hundreds
of
times
over
the
years,
and
I
remember
once
early
on
when
I
couldn't
get
my
breath
and
it
felt
like
my
chest
was
on
fire,
flames
licking
the
inside
of
my
ribs
fighting
for
a
way
to
burn
out
of
my
body,
my
parents
took
me
to
the
ER.
Nurse
asked
me
about
the
pain,
and
I
couldn't
even
speak,
so
I
held
up
nine
fingers.
