They would come into the emergency room with what the police would call "a lovers' quarrel," and I would see a woman who was beaten, I would see a broken nose and a fractured wrist and swollen eyes.
Venien a la sala d'emergències amb el que la policia anomenava  "una baralla entre estimats". I jo veia una dona que havia estat colpejada, veia un nas trencat i un canell trencat i els ulls inflats.
