Yeah, it was just a weird moment, a really strange and uneasy and kind of horrifying feeling, to be standing there holding the check. It made everything more real, and finalized things in a way I wasn't sure I was ready for, and absolved them of their "owing me anything" even though the check didn't seem AT ALL equal to the suffering we'd gone through, and...there was even some element of, "I don't want their money!", mixed up with being a little afraid of all the drastic ways it was going to change our life really suddenly...It was weird.
