Oh, my. That was upsetting. Our favorite candy striper Nadine and that fool hospital thing did flicker through my mind, but patient confidentiality is no small thing and that would be a big can of worms for the hospital. I think Paula's theory is right.
So....Laura's pain and anger have already sent her over the edge, which in turn have caused Colson's fears to resurface and now his pain and anger is sending him over the edge.....
...and there sits their daughter, the rape victim. >:( I wish I could say that things can't get much worse - but I know better than that. Compelling to say the least.
Thanks, Louise!

no I haven't forgotten about you all, but I did get distracted by a new device that has had me reading quite a bit, the Amazon Kindle, courtesy of Leslie. So blame here for infrequent updates!
Chapter 52! http://louisev.livejournal.com/270614.html

Well, this is good timing, I log on to see that you posted a new chapter just a couple hours ago! Reading is always a good thing - I could never fault anyone for doing a lot of it - via any device! :)

If I'm going to look for the silver linings (as I tend to do), it seems that maybe Katie Ann is gaining a good measure of maturity and insight from all of this. It was really nice to see her and Ellery communicating so honestly and calmly - like two adults. And as I've mentioned before, it's also nice to see Ellery and Paula's respectful and open give-and-take.
Pam is right that it's been many years since her parents' divorce, but I keep going back in my mind to that talk that Colson and Laura had at the motel the first night she came to town when he told her, the woman he was married to for years and who gave birth to three of his children, that he had never loved her or wanted her. I thought Ellen made such a great comment about that on your LJ - that that revelation isn't years old, it's fresh, and it would have to make Laura look at her whole adult life differently.
I'm relieved that Colson called. The more time he spends alone, stewing, the more things will build up in his mind and I can understand that. The fears that cause a lifetime of hiding, as Ellery put it, probably don't ever go away completely. Now, go get your man, Ellery!
Thanks, Louise
