But that was still almost a fortnight away.#3 I was asked to do a week’s respite for a 14-year-old girl named Elise Blackwell. She had lived all over the place with her father, then with her mother, then with her paternal grandmother, and so on.#4 The girl was eventually placed in care, and her parents never spoke to each other again.
