A gut-wrenching (pun-intended) follow-up to Rocky's previous piece about his ongoing battle with obesity. The SFX and narrative are pithy and real, especially the stark reality of his surgery's aftermath. Rocky's willingness to share more intimate moments (the bathroom sequence is not for the squeamish) make this Radio Rookie piece something I use with my students.
