I am so sorry you have that memory to carry, Allyson As glad as I am that someone who loved ita delivered the news, as someone who loves you, I also want to punch fate in the 'nads for making that person have to be you.
Who was the real power? The Captain? or Tenille?

Oh, God, Allyson. So hard.
Please know that nobody could have handled it any better than you did, and take whatever time you need, and snuggle with your pets.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
Allyson, if internet love and support is worth anything, you have mine.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Allyson, please feel free to talk about it; I don't want you to have to carry this by yourself. It's not your fault. You didn't do anything wrong.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Oh, Allyson. I am so sorry that you are having to go through this. It's a horrific task to have to carry out and remember. My heart just aches for you and her family. This isn't something any of us are prepared for. We can only act out of love, and I know you did that.

I'm getting the pig!
I can't even imagine how painful that was, Allyson. I'm sure it will stay with you for some time but I second Trudy and JZ's words. So many wise individuals here.

Allyson I'm so sorry. I wish we could all take that from you or help carry that pain.

Happy birthday, msbelle! I know you're not feeling it this year. I'm not sure I was feeling it, either. But I did make plans with local January birthday people, and we're going out for beer and pub food on Monday.
I've been saying yes to getting together with people this year.
One of my co-workers asked me why I was out yesterday and I was honestly surprised that there are people who don't know.
Someone just emailed to ask me if I was feeling better because I was out yesterday, and I don't know what to say in response.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Allyson. What Trudy, JZ, and others have said, really. Listen to me, as someone who has been told her child is dead. You can't imagine what mercy it was having someone who knew her and loved her tell them she's gone.
It's horrible and difficult and I'm so, so sorry that you had to do it at all. But someone had to, and that it was you made an enormous difference. Thank you. Whatever it must have cost you, thank you so much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, Beverly.
