Therapy and tachycardia
I’ve seen all the videos Jessica has taken of Namine at physical therapy, of course. But I’ve only rarely attended Namine’s therapy sessions, because they are during the week when I’m at work.

Does she know about the cape?
I never told Namine about her cape, I swear. I wanted it to be a surprise. But yesterday, Namine was playing in her room with her superhero Little People. She has quite a few, but her favorite is Batman, of course. She came scooting out into the living room. I’m Super Namine! No, I can’t…
