Accepting help when you need it does not make you weak. It does not make you self-serving, or selfish, and it does not make you Toadface. When you have your consultation, tell them how hard it has been for you. Tell them it's been especially hard because you haven't felt able to open up to anyone, and that you're trying so hard to be strong and people are misinterpreting 'strong' as 'okay', where they shouldn't. The special consideration stuff is all there for people who, like you, have had to put up with all kinds of things that the vast majority of their classmates have not had to cope with. Med's hard enough as it is without life getting in the way! Accepting the help that you need is not milking the situation, and it's not an unfair advantage -it's levelling the playing field a bit ( ... )

Aw, kitten love!
Does he have a name yet?
(Sorry, but... kitten... these things are obligatory)

Damn straight you're justified in fighting for your rights. What sucks is that the system is so screwed up that you even have to fight, even have to question yourself and get more stressed and worred. That's not right at all.

I'll be home in just under a week, for a fortnight. If you're not too crazy busy and you want to see me and anyone else, I'm happy to bring a carload up to Sale. No pressure though, if things are a bit crazy or you're just not feeling up to people, that's okay too. Take care of yourself!

his name is atticus/atti (to kill a mockingbird) and he's a mischief but cute enough to get away with things.
