Summary
On Dennis Whittaker’s 21st birthday, his mother hugged him, told him she loved him, and said they would never speak again.
Dennis said he understood, even though it hurt more then he'd ever thought a human heart could bear.
His Meidung began on the porch of the house his great-grandfather built with his bare hands.
And he hasn’t spoken to his family since.
