Dear T,
My reaction to the error in D's medication this morning I think shows how extremely stressed I am right now... But I think you would also understand *why* this particular thing made me react the way I did--because it was something I was holding out hope for that was temporarily dashed. It may only mean waiting another day, but right now, that feels like an eternity.

I was tempted to email you, in case you hadn't read your morning emails yet (was only 7:45), but I'm fairly certain of what you'd say, that you'd be empathetic and also tell me not to beat myself up about it, so I was able to just sort of do that in my head (once I was able to step back a bit). And then I'm going through the process of trying to make it right. just hope we can either still use this prescription or get a new one in the next day or so.

Love,
LT
