Well, W came home from taking D17 to look at the campuses of local colleges in our area. D17 tells me W is 'freaking out' because she's having her period and while they were out she has been bleeding more than normal and it's not stopping.
So, I go to W's 'room' and ask her if she's all right, can I do anything for her, does she need to go to the doctors, etc.
She tells me she's got the names of some OBGYN's and is going to call them, going from slightly 'tearful' to 'strong' as she talks. Ok, so I see she doesn't 'need' me so I leave her alone.
A few minutes later she comes into my office and gives me an 'update' and tells me that she's waiting for a call back from a doctor, still going from 'tearful' to 'strong'. I ask her if there is anything I can do to let me know, and she seems shaken so I offer her a hug, and she says no. She turns and leaves, going to the house she is 'house sitting'.
Shes gone now. I'm sure she'll be all right. Don't know why, after rejecting my concern for her while talking to her in her room, she comes into my office to give me more information, then rejects a hug. I'm giving up trying to figure her out.
She sure seems to have everything under control. Guess that's her life. Now I'm doing the same for myself.
