To Those in the Know and Kat, From Thomas

Hello, it's Thomas! Just letting you know that Mary left us last night, thankfully. Her guess that William's presence would alleviate David's need for her to stick around was right. And I think I'm about to join her seeing as I went with Peter to visit Svetlana this afternoon.

I love you all and I know I'll be seeing you sometime soon. Until then, take care and please...if Peter (or..anyone really) disappears, find him! Because I don't like watching that. It's like seeing a movie and yelling at the person on screen not to open the damn door because there's a monster in the closet but they never hear you and they always open the stupid door.

Anyway...I'll miss you very much!

Just a quick note, Renee, because I'm taking your cousin out for some Dad and Tasha time. Before I say what I want to say though, I thought I should inform you that some people suspect that she's the one taking over Bianca's journal. She's very upset about it and some Renee time might help too, though I'll do my best to cheer her up tonight. We'll go somewhere special, though I do fear she's going to take me to some club or...pierce me or something!

I wanted you to know that you were an inspiration to me today. I went with Thomas to see Svetlana and I didn't think I could do it. I kept thinking of all the things she did to me...to my girls...to David and I didn't think I could sit there and talk to her. And then I thought of you and how brave you are to reach out to Josie. You speak to her and encourage her and there's nothing that says you have to do that. No one would blame you if you didn't, and you do it anyway. I find that nothing short of amazing. And thinking about that gave me the strength to visit Svetlana.

I think it's important to tell the people who inspire us, and I wanted you to know that. You gave me strength today without even meaning to. So thank you, Renee. I love you.
