Andrew Largeman:
I was the reason she was in a wheelchair. I pushed her. So there that is. Sam:
Shut up. Mark:
Fuck off. Andrew Largeman:
No, that's the truth. Sam:
Why? Andrew Largeman:
It was a complete freak accident, you know? It's one of those things you replay a million times in your head and you see how clearly it was just a complete freak thing. My whole life she was depressed for no reason and, you know, one day... I was a little kid. I was nine years old and I just hated her for that. And I pushed her. And it was innocent! I was just completely frustrated because. Sam:
[interrupts]
Because you couldn't make her happy? Andrew Largeman:
Yeah! Fuck yeah. And any other time, you know, any other day she would have just yelled at me and sent me to my room but this day. On this particular day the door of the dishwasher had fallen open. The latch was broken and it would just randomly fall open. That fucking latch. It's really amazing how much of my life has been determined by a quarter-inch piece of plastic. [pauses] Andrew Largeman:
So anyway, she fell back over the door and hit her neck on the kitchen counter paralyzing her from the waist down. Sam:
Wow. Andrew Largeman:
