The staircase is a mirage

It was 4 years ago, in winter. My younger sister and I were returning from the polyclinic, we made her an X-ray, she had cancer ... We entered this entrance by accident, we had to make photocopies of the doctor's certificate. The staircase was very old, damaged in some places and tied with wire. I'm not sure if it still exists ... When we left this entrance, I was stopped by a passer-by, a girl with the words: "Your whole back is white!" My sister beat me on the back with a glove to shake off the plaster, she laughed, she had cerebral palsy, and I was glad that I somehow amused her ...

Very nice story as well, Marina! How's your sister doing these days? Any better?
