    Summary

    Dana thinks all three of her girls are beautiful, in their own wonderful ways. They were adorable little girls and they've grown into gorgeous women. She's got some pretty damn good genetics to hand out, thank you very much: the three sets of proof are right there. Her oldest Sophie has darker blonde hair than her mother and it has so many gorgeous shades of honey and gold threaded through. Her middle, Caroline (though she became Carrie in college), has Benji's deep blue eyes and Dana's heart-shaped face and it makes her look like a freaking cherub in all her baby pictures. All of her daughters are beautiful and Dana would never rank them against each other, in her love or her affection or her esteem.

    But in terms of individual traits, she thinks the one she likes the most is the one she's never going to acknowledge out loud. That no one ever acknowledges out loud.

    She loves her youngest daughter's nose.

    Dana loves Rosemary's long, sharp, aquiline nose that looks not quite like hers or Benji's.

    Summary

    “How are you?” he asks.

    Dana looks at him. He doesn’t mean fine? hanging in there? surviving? He means the real thing.

    She could tell him the truth. That every condolence card feels like a small fresh violence. That she keeps reaching for her phone to text Benji stupid little things and then remembering.

    Instead, she says, “I’m upright.”

    Robby’s mouth curves. “I noticed.”

    Dana’s husband dies. In the aftermath, there are daughters to raise, shifts to work, and a colleague who refuses to let her fall apart alone.

    Summary

    He quickly made his way to the break room to acquire a cover for his coffee cup, where he saw Dana, her back turned as she leaned against the counter. The day shift charge nurse, who had led them all into battle, only to miraculously come out on the other side somewhat unscathed.

    Jack stopped just inside the doorway, the smell of coffee and antiseptic mixing in the quiet break room.

    Dana stood with her arms crossed, shoulders slightly slumped, not from exhaustion so much as that after kind of weight. The kind that settles when you realize it’s finally over…and now you can feel everything.

    He didn’t say anything at first. Just grabbed a lid for his cup, slowly, and placed it on top like he had all the time in the world.

    Then, softly:

    "Hey."

     

    Or

     

    After the trauma of Pittfest and Dana being punched, Dana and Abbot are suddenly confronted with the past and old feelings when he comes to comfort her.
