"Don't Let Jane Suffer... Don't Let Her Die...!"

Work.

*flailyflail*

Well. 'Twas an easy day, at least, which was something. But. But but but.

I've agreed to work on Saturday, because the new girl who took Kim's place will be alone, and God knows I know how mad stressful it is to work alone, especially if you've just started to-day, goodness sake. So I'll work on Saturday.

But I don't want to.

Janet died. On Friday. My poor beautiful lady, my lady who cried when I read her letters, my lady who never smiled except when I smiled at her first, my lady who couldn't speak but when she could shouted and cried that she needed to go home, my lady who was always there. I'm not surprised, because she was very ill when I left, but I am sad.

And May is doing poorly. I do not think I will have her much longer.

But Dick and Jennie are both back from the hospital. Jennie is much, much better and not hurting any more, and she's back to joining in with activities and smiling like mad and wearing her newsboy cap. I'm so glad. Dick isn't quite as well. He hasn't cut his hair or shaved in a while, and he looks half-mad, and he said he's very, very weak.

And Charlie got terribly, terribly ill while I was away. I think perhaps he had a stroke. He's on oxygen, and in a wheelchair, and--this is why I think he had a stroke--having a great difficulty speaking.

Katy was glad to see me, and Irma didn't shout at me or get angry when I gave her her birthday mail. I even kissed her cheek and wished her happy late birthday, and she was glad, or at least not bothered.

I feel so safe and good and happy with my people. I love them so much. They perhaps will break my heart, but I will never, never, never stop loving them. I would say it is a selfish reason to go on working, but I think they love me, too.
