Teaser Tuesday #8

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Mizb at Should Be Reading.  To participate, you need to:

• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two teaser sentences from somewhere on that page
• Be careful not to include spoilers
• Share the title and author so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR list if they like your teaser

This week's teaser comes from:

"The reality: I am a pill popping, disabled old fool on a fool's errand.  After the leech removal session, Christine helped me the rest of the way over a smaller hill."

(By the way, the picture is not a picture of the cover art of the book Borneo Tom: In Story and Sketch: Love, Travel and Jungle Family in Tropical Asia, but it was all I could find in the little Amazon Associates box to the right of the new post box while typing this.  I will try to get a pic of the actual cover by the time I'm ready to post my review.)
