You did well...considering the circumstances.

Now is when the work can start though.

The initial part is over, and there is a basic understanding of what is going to happen in their lives, yet to them, the seed was only planted for the real questions that will be with them now.

Consistency with your answers, in line with how you presented things to them, is the important part.

It's not only going to be a facade of the way things will be, it WILL be the way things are now.

Now is the time when the reality of the situation will be revealed to not only them, but to all of you.

There isn't anything you can do except to continue to work on the things you want to be different in your life, so that you can show them the way through this.

That reality equals her first night in the basement, being a "rough" one.

Not your problem now.

Just continue on your path, with the Dignity that you have shown so far.

Everything else will fall where it must...
