I.
On Sophie's hair, throughout her life, but particularly when she was a baby:
Is her hair naturally curly?
No, we perm it regularly.
II.
On an explanation that Sophie's "problems" were due to epilepsy:
Can't they give her something for that?
You know, we hadn't thought to consult a doctor. Maybe we will!
III.
How do you do it? I never could!
Hmmm. When it gets really bad, I mainline heroin. Otherwise, I guess I'd just lie on the floor and do nothing.
