Something I’m interested in her texts etc. She seems to frequently message people about work, and obviously the prosecution have brought up the more incriminating ones.
In the interest of balance I’d be interested in the conversations surrounding. It’s a neonatal unit so there likely, though usually very infrequent, is always a chance of one of those babies sadly dying. I imagine if you’ve been there long enough most nurses will have been on a shift where a baby dies, whether it is your patient or someone else’s.
Any human would take that home with them. I imagine if you are on a shift where a baby dies it is unusual enough and traumatic enough for you message your colleagues for support, to chat etc, to let of steam, to cry whatever.
I wonder if there’s ever a point in Lucy’s messages where she expresses how frequent it has been, how it is getting to her. Not to go Neville Longbottom on the situation or to be flippant but if somehow this is pure bad luck there would be an element of “Why is it always me?” Like I would be emotional and upset that I was on every single shift where something happened and be at the point of wanting to pack the whole lot in. I wonder if she ever expressed anything along those lines? IF there’s any way she could be innocent I would be in pieces if this kept happening and would probably quit my job because I would have found it very hard to deal with emotionally.
I would find it very strange in fact if she had never expressed disbelief or self doubt or an intention to quit because it was all getting too much.
