Oh this was beautiful. Disgusting? Yes, but so beautiful.
A horrific dive into "in sickness and in health", and a gutwrenching depiction of the lengths a woman will go to to care for her husband.
The flow of this was perfect, and I was absolutely thrilled with the creature reveal. It is grotesque in all the right ways.
