This Land - Losing Sleep but Not Hope at a Diner in Elyria, Ohio - NYTimes.com

This is well-written and worth your time.

“It can get to be too much, like the smell of toast burning. An unanticipated trigger — a forgotten order, a returned meal, a splatter of ranch dressing — can set Donna off, and her tirades will spill into the dining room like scalding coffee.

“Is she O.K.?” a customer asks one difficult day.

“My mom?” asks Kristy, the waitress.

“Yes,” the customer replies.

“No.””
