And then the terror hits...

It's not the time of night that's important, it's the quality of the silence. When the room is dark and the only sound the low hmmmm of HVAC and the fridge condenser, and Anne-Chloe's breathing

I know that feeling, it's TERRIFYING.
I hope the imaging shows improvement.

I'm just catching up on LJ -- I'm so sorry all of you are going through this, and I hope AC is better soon. *hugs*

I can relate to so much of what you've written (when the kids were going to the ex's house, I worried constantly that I'd never see them again), and that fear of losing a child is such a heavy thing. I have a superstitious feeling either way when it comes to the kids -- mentioning the bad or the good seems like tempting fate in some way. And my DH can't handle hearing any of my deep, dark, worst-case scenario thoughts, so I keep them to myself most of the time. It's a heavy burden.

but, you know, introvert-acceptable hugs, from a quiet distance if necessary :^)
