#I'm glad GA was able to come into her own and advocate for herself later on

The more I read about Gillian’s pregnancy the sadder I feel for her, this shouldn’t be how a mother - and a young mother at that - puts her child into the world and is constantly stressed out about how her life could turn out. When she says that the year becomes blur, it does not surprise me that there’s a lot she doesn’t remember now…

I do, too. It makes sense why Gillian struggled so much....

I was warmed to see that the crew (and cast) really cared about her, and took on more of the heavy-lifting (so to speak) to ease her burdens as best as they could. Working on television during that time sounds like a nightmare compared to modern standards. No wonder actors (and screenwriters and etc. etc.) are so tightly knit with unions: they probably needed/need them to survive. (Can you sense my incredible ignorance on this topic? XDDD)

My heart goes out, though we're probably thinking about it more than she currently is. May peace be upon her and her loved ones-- they've earned it.
