Notes for the week.

The facilitator stopped the room when four of us were talking at once and asked one person how she was actually doing. It changed the whole hour.

Somebody new tonight, terrified, exactly where I was in the spring. I said the thing that had been said to me and watched it land.

Went for the practical answers and stayed for the company, which I gather is what everybody does.

Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point.

Bloods in twelve weeks.

Reading this at half past six with a cup of tea and nodding at every line. Thank you for writing it down.

Thank you for saying the hard part out loud. It makes it easier for the rest of us to.

Please do take that to your GP rather than waiting for the next review. Not to frighten you — just, go.
