"I know that I'm being vain and stubborn," she admits, looking just to the side of Sookie because it's easier than facing her dead in the eye and having to admit that what she's doing is a coward's move. She's been so strong that now that she's fighting a battle she can't win, she doesn't know how to strategize. She doesn't know how to win the small fights. "I don't think I can get much thinner," she points out, voice growing thin. "And to wear a wig like that? Sookie, I can fight an army of machines," she insists, forcing strength back into her voice. "I don't know that I can fight this without John."
