Cathy the superhero
So how many times has Cathy saved Stella from murder/suicide/injury? Sure hope this time it will stick. Quick thinking on her part! Thanks Angharad/Bonzi for not killing Stella. Baby'll be coming home to Cathy though since Stella will be an in-patient somewhere for quite a while this time I suspect.
Brain damage? No way - that baby is going to be a genius.
Maybe this time
They'll take it serious and get Stella the help she needs. So much has happened to her and she obviously was never prepared to face things like this, or just wasn't strong enough after the Russians to handle it. Looks like Cathy is gonna have three younguns to handle after all. Maybe Trish can push her pram down the aisle between Meems dropping flower petals, and Cathy entering to walk down the aisle.
Super Cathy On Her Way, There She Goes To Save The Day!
[With apologies to Mighty Mouse] Yes, she once again did her duty. But why was Stella so distraught? Is she scared to care for her child? I hope that Cathy's gift will work on Stella.

Thank Goodness Cathy Saved Her Again
Thank goodness Cathy saved her again. I really hope that she gets the help she needs. I think that Cathy should use some of her blue power on her. Maybe she can heal her and have her return to the same Stella before the kidnapping. I believe that Puddin will be completely normal. I can understand why Stella would be upset by what the doctors said. My grandfather basically gave up fighting after the doctor was overheard saying that he was not going to make it and he refused to eat anything after that. There should have been family meetings involving Stella, Simon and Cathy where the doctors explain exactly what is going on with the baby and not what can be said carelessly while thinking they are out of earshot.
Windmilling Dromedaries, Batgirl…
…that could be awkward. Or maybe not. Cathy and Simon were obviously trying to keep it clean, so to speak, so that the girlies don't get to learn about Stella's suicide attempt. No doubt Tom will be told about it later, although maybe not, considering his recent heart problem. And she must say nothing about Stella overhearing the two docs talking about brain damage in case Trish and Meems sharp little ears pick it up.
Oh, why, oh why does life have to be so complicated for poor Cathy.
The other thing that strikes me is that wee Desdemona will be saddled with the name Puddin’ at least for her childhood if not her whole life. I have a cousin Christopher who was given the baby name, Pork, and the poor chap still gets called that by some members of the family today when he is in his fifties.
Almost a relaxing episode tonight after yesterday's trauma.

Great! Another Episode of Wallowing .... ?!! Hang on !
... I already claimed trademark to that title Ms Angharad. I will be visiting my solicitor soon and I will demand half of the royalties you get from publishing this on Big Closet!
Errr, you get nothing ?
Never Mind. ;-) ( With apologies to Roseanne Roseanneadanna and Gilda Radner :) )
To say that I am gobsmacked at the moment is an understatement, I am using my jaw to wax my parquet floors at the moment. I have made it big time ! Today Big Closet, tomorrow, ... a Bigger Closet !!! Yeah !! 8-).
Now that I got that out of my system.
Cathy really had to go for 'broke' to save Stella. On reflection, there does not seem to be anything really to anchor Stella's life at the moment. Life must seem like a failure for her with the loss of Desi and then her body failing her when she prematurely delivered Puddin. Puddin's recovery with Cathy's careful ministrations will help but Stella needs to be committed at the moment. More responsibilities for Cathy, now with a broken collar bone which will take up to three MONTHS to heal according to websites.
Suitably humbled.

Why not tell Tom?
Is it because the kids are right there? Not sure why they would want to keep Tom in the dark.
Hard to Comment
Without a doubt Stella is high maintenance (in many ways so is Cathy). My problem is they keep sending her home after the suicide attempts without really addressing the core issues. Wonder if anyone has mentioned those thugs will never be a problem again? It might help a little, but this going after something happens is not good, Stella needs constant support. She doesn't need the start again stop again that seems to be the norm. The same can be said about Cathy.
Of course, Angharad keeps showing a lot of people who should not be in their professions (along with a competent few). I still wonder how much of this is life experience. Keep on writing Angharad, we are enjoying the work.
Now lets find a quality phych. this time
Thank God, Angharad likes Rugby, I don't think I could stand football(soccer) references. "She dropped Stella with a kick that would make Pele proud" Ug! Now I did it to myself.
Stella needs be seen by a competent Psych. Not that rest home for drunks.
