One identity in an individual with Dissociative Identity Disorder can have high cholesterol. One. There have been cases where one identity is allergic to bee stings. The others are not. Are there moments where two identities can coexist at the same time? There are times when two identities can take the "light" or "the spot" or consciousness at the same time. This happened with a student that I was working with. And her left and right hand were taking notes in different hand-writings about separate things at the same time. The differences in the identities can be dramatic. As much as the difference between you and me and every person in that auditorium.

You wrote about a woman in Germany who'd been blind for 10 years. And then, it was discovered that she had DID. Then three of her identities developed sight. And you speculated that her optical nerves regenerated because of her beliefs. What are you trying to say? There are things, Dr. Fletcher, that all of us would find hard to believe. Are you trying to tell me there's a 24th identity? You protect the broken. When you said that you thought this situation was extraordinary, I knew you can maybe understand. Understand what? The Beast is real.

Uh, you know what? I'm doing much better. I shouldn't have emailed you. I'm just... Look at me. I'm too impulsive.
