The X-Project

I know some of you have noticed Hope's spells seem to be getting worse, and some of her peers have expressed concern too. Today I found her passed out in the hall between classes and we had a discussion about the potential root cause of the episodes. From that conversation I was left with the impression that her manifestations are tied very closely to anxiety, unhappiness, and other negative emotions she is prone to internalizing. This is in part due to her additional course-load and complicated by certain family dynamics. She was drained after the conversation so I instructed her to take the rest of the day off.

The professor has just finished a very long phonecall to Hope's parents about giving her some space and how detrimental it would be to remove her from the school at this point. It's our hope that they will take his advice to heart and give her some time to breathe.

Please watch Hope in class for the next few weeks. If the spells continue to be frequent or worsen please tell me or the professor. Because Hope is very private with her emotions it's difficult to gauge her stress-level, so at the moment her level of control may be the most reliable way to assess her state of mind.
