She went to the doctor about it several times and he gave her various creams, feature film action/adventure but still the sore persisted. It was all very strange. Until one night my sister came to my room, giggling, almost choking with glee, feature film action/adventure and hustled me into the TV room, where my mother had passed out sitting on a bench that lined one room of the wall. Her head was lolling back on the window sill as usual and she was snoring heavily. My sister told me feature film action/adventure to go and have a close look at the back of her head. I tiptoed over and oh, the joy, the fierce joy as the mystery of the sore was revealed. On the window sill, behind the precise spot my mother always sat to smoke, drink, berate us and then pass out, there was a small, plump, cactus plant. And every night, my mother would pass out, and every night her neck would fall right back on that cactus. Hence the mysterious sore. We never moved it. It died at some point, the sore went away, and we had one less little victory in our lives.
