Awest, I was thinking of you yesterday as I passed through Indiana.

Don't get too discouraged. Cold-and-flu season this year is going to be TOUGH. Both of my girls are home with 101 plus temps. W is home too. She was sooooo mad about having to take Friday off. Now she's sick and taking Monday off.

Perhaps you shouldn't even text H about S. He has chosen to leave and supposedly work on things. Perhaps the only text you should send is about the money. "Hey, S sick and had to go to clinic. Co-pays and medicine cost ????, please send me a check for half."

I'll let others chime in as if asking for the money is a good idea. Otherwise, let him be. In my sitch, W does call and text about girls' condition and I respond. But she asked me to leave. I didn't want to go and I want to be as big a part of their lives as possible.

So far, he's choosing not to be so don't give it to him with the updates on S.

I forget, are you a teacher as well? Did you have to call in?
