I closed my eyes and let myself forget the chaos for a moment. For just a brief moment, I felt like my world wasn't spinning out of control.

"We don't know much. The clinic is calling it a mistake and investigating the incident, but Michael has been really agitated. I'm starting to think he believes it wasn't an accident. Honestly, after everything else we've been through, I wouldn't even be shocked at this point."
