My sister is an addict and a gambler, and my little nickname for her, a play on words, has always been, “the Highest Card in the Deck.” Eventually, I want to have the “A” and spade beneath it tattooed on my outer wrist in her memory. Needless to say, this piece is viscerally moving to me. Thank you so much.
