I promise. I think I'm someone who will always look after my kids a lot better than I look after myself. And I know that looking after me is looking after them, but you know what I mean. I'll never let them come to any sort of disadvantage because I can't handle it.

I did talk to people about how I was doing, while you were gone. Mostly Abby and Deirdre, and Flynn too. No one else knew about what I was doing, aside from Deirdre of course. I don't know if that would have changed. The truth probably would have come out sooner or later, I suppose. I'm glad it didn't happen enough that it came to that point, though.

I know I'll always have plenty of support, and that very much includes you, first and foremost. I'll let you know. I promise. I love you.
