Tonight’s Married To Medicine recap is part one of the first ever three-part M2M reunion. We longtime fans of the show have come to expect a lot from the M2M reunions. Let’s hope this one meets our expectations. Warning: I kinda go off at one point, choosing a side I didn’t see coming in seven seasons.
Gowns Fit For A Pair Of Princesses
The set is a replica of the Capital Mall in homage to the trip our cast made to the Washington March in August. The ladies look gorgeous! The makeup and gowns are perfect and each woman’s reunion look is true to their unique personality and style. I notice right away that Toya and Anila both have princess gowns that complement each others’ looks. We see a glimpse of the best group of Bravo men hanging out backstage. YAY! An auspicious start!

Andy starts in on a light note, asking each woman a question pertaining to their quirks, nothing too heavy. He asks Anila if her gown is the Lisa Nicole Collection. Bwahahahaha! I love it! I am not a fan of Lisa Nicole or her “fashion.” Some disappointing news: Dr. Damon will not be joining us. 😥 Heavenly reports that one son (she doesn’t specify which) is recovering in the hospital. Daddy had to jump in and assist the doctors at the small hospital to get their son the proper treatment.
Our Docs Were Spraying And Praying
The season began shooting around the time of the pandemic shutdown. So, it is appropriate to acknowledge the weird and scary times our medical cast went through. In hindsight, Bravo makes light as the men strip off their scrubs following their shifts. Heavenly closed her office for 40 days, while she waited for ADA guidelines. Dr. Damon breaks out those stupid shields I hate. A viewer asks about inhaling the Lysol they were using to spray each other down. It looks silly now, but things were scary at the time. And, as Jackie reminds us, “We did get that advice from the highest office…” It seems so long ago…

We address our first difficult topic: the breakdown of the fun friendship between Toya and Anila. We cover the subject of the $3 million nightmare/monstrosity Anila calls her new home. Dr. Kiran wants to enjoy the peace and perfect order before the mother-in-law comes to visit — and messes up the kitchen! The topic of the house has given production the opening to segue to Anila’s bus ride complaint about the makeup artist’s invoice. She had to delay payment because “we’re building a house.” More likely because Kiran is keeping an eye on finances. Viewers weigh in on Anila’s laissez-faire attitude toward going $1.3 million over budget, then complaining about an invoice from a makeup artist.
I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream
And away we go … Anila says she paid. Toya pulls out her iPad with texts from the artists complaining Anila doesn’t ever pay on time. Anila has the literal receipts. For two services (out of how many?). No one verifies the dates. Heavenly says she didn’t know people would be bringing evidence. Bullshit! Andy reminds her it’s a reunion, evidence is expected. Like when liar Mariah said she had receipts on Dr. Damon cheating. Heavenly also is a liar! Moving on to something lighter, Andy asks “fashion blogger” Anila to hashtag the ladies’ looks. She gives all compliments until she calls Toya’s look “#TheUHaulCollection.” Neither clever nor funny. Is that a reference to Toya’s booty or the amount of fabric? Andy points out Anila’s gown and Toya’s gown could be from the same collection.

Andy asks where the friendship stands now. Before Toya can finish her answer, Heavenly blurts out to Toya “You cannot be so blunt and frank with people!” Andy about dies. Me too! The one who goes in on everyone — and their mama, LITERALLY! — is calling out Toya for being offensive? Bwahahahaha! Best one ever! The backee/forthee between the two ladies commences: “Heavenly, you call people prostitutes! You call people dumb and stupid.” “You are rude!” “You are disrespectful.” “We are talking about you!” Scream. Yell. Interrupt. Scream. Andy wants them to listen to the Old White Guy! Simone has to yell “Old White Guy” to get them to STFU!
Only One Sister Got Good Ass Gene
Simone sticks up for Toya, though not her aggressive tone. Anila still resents Toya calling her out — IN FRONT OF NEW FRIENDS — for not paying the glam squad. But we have just seen the flashback proving ANILA BROUGHT IT UP, not Toya. Toya DOES apologize, with sincerity and class! With extreme intervention from Andy and Simone, Toya and Anila both admit they miss the friendship and hug it out and vow to move forward in a positive direction. Our first M2M reunion “miracle.” I am hoping for more.

Cue Quad’s grand entrance. She is a magnificent vision in pink. I want those pink shoes! Oh, no … here come #emojigate and #quadsassphotosgate. We rehash the emoji fight with Heavenly, yet again. Quad gives us such a damn funny impression of Heavenly, it’s almost worth revisiting #bigassgate. Moving on, Andy asks Quad about her new home, a single-family dwelling with a “backyard resort” and pool. The ladies liken Quad and Heavenly to sisters who fight and make up. Quad is dating … more than one guy. One is a fine doctor. But does he have a penis hook? Andy reminds her Bill Gates is single. We get a glimpse of the men arriving. Then it’s back to trashing Toya over her negative comments about Quad’s former home. Again! Toya already has apologized to Quad on screen. And does so again.
Counting Apologies On Both Hands
So now we are seeing a reunion theme here. Gang up on Toya night! In past seasons, I would have led the charge. But I’ve done a 180 on Toya this season. We see flashbacks of Toya from the season beginning as she describes her idyllic life. She was tooling around in her golf cart to hang out with friends, and playing tennis every day. Then, the pandemic. Now she’s aggressive, turning into “Patrona,” screaming “fake,” etc. Andy asks Toya if, after watching herself, she has any regrets. Is she embarrassed about anything? Toya admits she didn’t communicate well and apologizes for her aggressive approach and hurting people’s feelings. After, prompting from Dr. Simone, Toya begins to finally answer the question her “caring friends” wanted to know all season. What was the REASON behind the lashing out?

But, as Toya tries to answer Andy’s question, she is attacked first by Heavenly who rips her for talking about people’s houses, people’s clothes … THIS from the woman who says terrible things about people AND their mothers. Jackie schools Toya on what accountability looks/sounds like. It sounds a lot like what Toya was TRYING to say. A Scary Time To Feel Abandoned
Toya is trying to answer the season-long question. Her behavior was partly caused because of being married to an ER doctor during the pandemic. She was hurt that no one checked on her and Eugene. What Toya was saying, and what no one heard, is that Dr. Eugene is the only ER doctor in the group. So things are different for them. (The others all practice some sort of “non-urgent” medicine.) She was living with profound fear. She would be woken up by Eugene’s coughing, worrying that he had COVID. As an ER doctor, Eugene saw death by COVID every day. Toya saw his depression deepening. We viewers hear all this while many others are busy screaming at Toya that she thinks only of herself.

Why can we viewers see it and not her “friends”? As an ER doctor, people cough in your face. People cough up BLOOD in your face. Toya had a lot to be worried about. By the time Contessa joins in with “We are all going through some shit.” Then, a rhetorical, sarcastic “I’m sorry. Andy, are you going through some shit?,” I am ready to punch the TV. Scott may be cheating. Boo hoo hoo. Eugene was trying to cheat death. At least Andy gets it and tries to end the shit there. But first, he asks about Toya’s dream house being for sale. So,Toya says people nearby are turning a million in profit. Andy is puzzled why she would leave her dream house behind. Toya says it’s the people inside it who matter, not the stuff, not the house. And, it is closer to the boys’ school. Could it be our Toya has grown up during the pandemic?
No Kissing, No Telling, No Clue
Whew! I had to calm down before we cover the light-hearted scenes of sex during the time of pandemic. First, we see the action from the dildo party. The discussion about the benefits of a hooked penis. Jackie gets turned on by Curtis when he cooks for her. Simone says sex was even better than before. She was working fewer hours and Curtis was perfecting his mixology skills. (Now, if only oldest son Miles would move out!) Andy asks about the drunken kiss shared by Toya and Quad. Silliness about women kissing. Typical Bravo fare.

Time for the crocodile tears segment. Andy asks Contessa if she thinks Scott is cheating. She say he may be harboring resentment over her school decision. All of the ladies, even Toya, come to her support. They offer advice on how to save her marriage, while the men listen intently backstage. Andy recalls how this team helped Simone and Curtis begin to heal their fractured marriage. Jackie says that Contessa sends out mixed messages. Andy wants to know if the “D-word” has been discussed. Contessa stalls thanks her friends for keeping her confidence. Quad discloses that Contessa has filed for a separation. Jackie and Heavenly wipe away tears. Backstage, the men appear dumbfounded. Especially Scott, who describes it as a sneak attack.
Next week: The men crash the stage; the women question Scott’s fidelity; Contessa has a breakdown backstage; questions surround Simone and Jackie’s friendship; Simone is brought to tears over her hostile relationship with Heavenly; Scott is caught in a web of lies.
Again, love your recaps and thank you! I was so over the screaming while Toya was attempting to explain that she was reacting in fear. Yes, we all went through something during the pandemic (and are still recovering) but it seems like the women forget that everything is relative. We all don’t go through things the same way, with the same perception. She didn’t handle it the way the others did. That’s all she was trying to say. She was actually trying to own it but Heavenly kept wanting to scream and prevent Toya from getting there. So frustrating. I have a different view of Contessa and the “light bulb moment” for me was Jackie’s comment about sending mixed signals. Scott comes across as a secret holder and wants to act one way but then come across a different way. She was getting mixed signals from him. I think he was cheating to some degree but wanted to keep it between them and not let the group know. He’s seen how this group is with their friends and marriages. They are in it but damn, do they support each other. Scott lies (no life coach, then a female life coach then a male one) and Contessa is complicit, trying to make it all work. She might buy the lies and be too beaten down from the gaslighting but everyone else will see through it and question it. I see this differently. I think she feels badly about her contribution to the state of their marriage and so she’s trying to go with Scott’s narrative. I think Scott knows she filed but made her promise she wouldn’t tell. I think, because of her background with her father, she is used to keeping family secrets (her dads drug use) and is used to selfish addict behavior which makes her hide the dirty laundry. Scott comes across as someone who doesn’t want to be perceived as anything but perfect. Marriage counseling would’ve aired all their stuff. That’s why he didn’t want it. I feel for her. I’m sure she contributed to their decline as a couple but you are only as sick as your secrets and he’s been making her hide all of them. His behavior at the dinner and from the previews shows me that he is all about shutting stuff down and being a victim of a gang up. They weren’t ganging up on him, they were really trying to help. She came across badly because she was playing both sides. She wanted the help but she wanted her marriage. That’s a tough spot to be in. If y’all haven’t guessed it, I’ve been through similar situations and I kept the secrets only to be turned on when I finally needed to get out.
Thanks for the compliment. Tamara must be used to it by now, but it still makes me feel tingles when people say nice things!
I hope I you felt relief after finally getting out of the relationship AND from under the secrets. I agree with you that Contessa’s relationship with her dad has a lot to do with the dynamics in the Metcalfe marriage. When dysfunctional behavior is what is modeled for you, it’s confusing knowing how to act in relationships. When Contessa was on WWHL, she said they FINALLY had started counseling. I wonder if Scott will be open to receiving advice. I hope their counselor is better than most on Bravo! I think if Scott understands that their kids need him to listen and learn that he may have even more motivation.
Here’s another thing: Want to know if he’s cheating, Contessa? ASK HIM! So obvious that I didn’t think of doing it in my life. I was afraid the guy would get mad! Now, I would say, FUCK THAT SHIT! MENTION IT ALL!
As my GREAT therapist said: A HEALTHY relationship can bear the weight of open and honest communication. (If it collapses, either the relationship wasn’t healthy or the communication was sketchy, Or both!)
I love that you recap this show because I think that it is one of the best ones on Bravo. These women have their drama but they also seem to have one another’s back. The men have the best relationship on Bravo. I love how they all seem to give back where ever they go. I was annoyed by Toya this season but I liked how you explained her emotional trauma. This has been a trying time for everyone and we should be respectful of the fact that people all process trauma differently. Toya was stuck at home with two boys for months on end and I am sure that being concerned about Eugene did not help her mental health. Jackie, Heavenly, Contessa and Simone were able to report to work, and except for Contessa had no small children to deal with. Even Contessa had relatives helping with her children during the Covid quarantine. I think they should be a little more tolerant of Toya.
I still get excited when you or Tamara answer my comment! Thanks for the kind words and I couldn’t agree with you more about communication. If you can’t ask, that’s a problem! I brought it up because sometimes my viewpoint comes directly from my own experiences, so I could be off or right on with my perception. I didn’t watch WWHL so thanks for recapping that, too! I do hope they benefit from therapy for their kids, mostly. Either way the marriage goes, they will always be parents and have to communicate.
I still get excited when you comment! I’m here for you anytime, Pauline!
Where does it say that with every marital issue it has to resort in Divorce. I think that is what’s wrong with people now says, with the first issue, everyone wants to run a get a divorce. Of course some issues warrant. Divorce. But, what happened to trying and work it out? I have been married for 27 years, yes we have had our issues, but we were both adult enough to talk it out. Perhaps Scott is keeping it in, because he feels that he won’t get heard. It does not always have to be infidelity. Everybody.else needs to stay out of it.
Oops! I forgot last season was a three-part reunion. Bravo lumped parts 1 and 2 into a two-hour back-to-back episode.
You are the best. I wish you could recap more shows! Scott and Contessa are bad at acting. It’s like they both are acting and can’t stick to the script. Either that, or Contessa is putting on and making Scott look bad. Either way, I’m team Scott because I hate Contessa
After two years, I still find it shocking that Contessa thought it was OK, or worse, didn’t CARE, to include Scott in her plans for school. So, was that bad acting too, I have to wonder. I don’t think it’s storyline, but … Then, amid their marital problems they open an office together. It’s difficult enough to work with a spouse when things are good.
I just now remembered how weird it was that their nanny, or house Nazi, or whatever she was, left under a cloud of weirdness. Something in the buttermilk ain’t clean, for sure.
Great recap, however, not buying Toya’s story. I understand a certain amount of frustration, but she was down right nasty. It has more to do with her superiority complex, she thinks the bigger the house, the better the person. She saw Anila’s house was going to be bigger so she found a reason to turn on her out of jealousy. Quad is doing well as a single woman, so she had to dis credit her efforts. Toya is a petulant child. Contessa messed up her own marriage when she left her husband and children to go to school and Scott is harboring anger for her. Simone and Jackie fell out because Simone is jealous of Jackie. Jackie took her husband back and began to build her empire. Simone is still in the same place she was when the show started, the only difference is she and Cecil are wearing designer and both of them look ridiculous. Heavenly is mean and she always will be, she has the ugly girl mentality because she cant see herself as we do, she see’s herself as the kid who was picked on in school so she still lashes out. Jackie is here for the check she could take or leave the show all together, but the money is great.
You sound like a heavenly fan, every changes she get she talk about Toya in a bad way! She thinks Tonya is beautiful, and she is jealous of her. Why Andy or nobody else call Heavenly out for being rude at the reunion when Tonya was talking?
It is WAY PAST THE TIME for someone to call out Heavenly. Watching the visit that she made with Jackie and Simone to her childhood home in Florida explained a lot. We may not ever shake the pain from past trauma, but giving people a pass for every hurtful thing they do because of it helps no one.
I hope during one of the next reunion episodes we will see a montage of Heavenly being an out-of-control harridan. But that would take up way too much time! Plus, it is highly likely she would start screaming at her own image before she could stop herself! That might be fun to watch.
I am SHOCKED that I have defended Toya for the last several episodes. The only time I was on her side in the past was against Mariah (talk about a superiority complex). When the cast was on an island trip and Contessa went off on Toya for OBVIOUSLY ACCIDENTALLY stepping on her foot, I began to see Contessa in a different light. Toya was freaked out by a crab and stumbled. She isn’t a stuntwoman who could have faked it.
The problem with Toya started when Contessa was with her sick dad instead of attending Toya’s party. But Scott was there in her stead and Toya made a big deal about blasting Contessa over the phone in front of everyone. That is the Toya I hope has matured during the pandemic. Only time will tell.
Heavenly … she can be despicable and exasperating, but great TV. Drunken James Kennedy level TV. Her ghetto talk, I cannot decide if it is an affectation or if it only comes on when she is emotional, but it bugs TF out of me.
I agree that Cecil and Simone look ridiculous in their label clothes. But their ITM interviews are my favorite part of most every show. I am really glad they worked through their marital bumps. I love all of the guys, but Cecil and Eugene the most. I am tearing up recalling Cecil’s pain over losing his dog, Sam.
I agree with you! So glad Simone and Cecil worked things out. Yes, Toya has had moments that leave my jaw on the floor like the one you mentioned when Contessa chose her sick father over Toya’s party. That was asinine. I think it was payback for Contessa going overboard over Toya “hitting her” (the crab stumble).
Heavenly can be aggressive & down right despicable; then, there are times she unloads on people who I feel deserve Heavenly’s wrath and I’m cheering “go Heavenly!”
Those “go Heavenly” times are few and far between though! She needs to be called out more than the calling out she does.
That said, I hope she goes off on Lisa Nicole about the COVID testing lab.
I don’t give a flying fuck if Lisa didn’t pay Anila, except as it relates to her pattern of skullduggery.
Fantastic recap I really enjoyed it and the show. I looked forward to your views. Tamara is an amazing writer and she also knows how to pick them too.
Thanks. I hope I can do the next two parts justice. I will be very disappointed if they don’t meet my expectations.
Good job on the recap. The first part of the reunion was a little but started picking up. I can imagine toya is taking all that out on the ladies because Eugene probably takes it out on toya (not in abusive way) but rants and telling her what’s going on in the hospital. Maybe I’m in the wrong with this but RHOBH get a lot of flack about the mean girls of Beverly Hills but I’m over the mean girls of Married to medicine (Jackie, Quad, Heavenly and Anila). Jackie didn’t talk for almost 45 minutes (edited that way). I’m sure we will see more of her nice nasty shade and side later when they bring up her friendship with dr. Simone. Quad, gave us a bunch of nothing during her segment just talking in her drag Queen lingo. Dolores Catania is the definition of loyalty in the dictionary Well heavenly kinmes is the definition of hypocrisy and rudeness, interrupting people while they talk, giving her options when not needed and saying things to critique others but she’s doing the same. Jackie come get your friend!! Anila, doesn’t pay her people on time, she pays them but has to be approved by bank of Karen. I’m sure if bravo was not to pay Anila her check on time she and Karen would be on the phone with bravo/Purveyors of Pop payroll real quick! If you can’t afford the Make up artist just do it yourself. Contessa I feel Had the ladies reveal her divorce on purpose. Here is why, To embarrass Scott the way he has been embarrassing her all season and have the other couples have an intervention with them the way they did with Simone and Cecil. Over all looking forward to the next 2 episodes but im over scott lying and hope the two episodes don’t focus on them 100%
It seems like an entire season’s worth of stuff was packed into the first part.
We know that the second part begins with the men “crashing the stage.” Whether it’s production or not, I hope the men are on later for us to enjoy their funny interactions and camaraderie. I will be disappointed if the only time we see the men is to weigh in on the Metcalfe Mess. We have seen a bit of the men commenting on the cracks (LIES) in Scott’s story. So that could go ANYWHERE.
We still have the work they did to help fight COVID in the most impacted areas. And we have the BLM and Washington March to discuss. (My favorite part of that was Cecil and Curtis getting over on Kari and Lisa Nicole.)
And … we need to discuss the production pawns: Kari and Lisa Nicole. We now have FOUR M2M ladies burned by Lisa. And the scandal over her lab and COVID. That was one time when Heavenly’s anger was righteous, especially in contrast to the work Damon was doing in the field. I hope that Bravo has the real dirt on that lab. I wouldn’t mind Kari as a friend next season, but time to toss Lisa Nicole out with that trash that she calls fashion.
Not sure how true this is, but the street committee says that Toya miscarried right before they started filming. Apparently that cast knows and for some reason no one has brought it up. If it’s true, I’m thinking she must have told them not to mention it. THAT would certainly explain her behavior and actually cause us to have more sympathy for her because as we all know….sometimes anger can be misplaced grief. Excellent recap.
Grief AND hormones. I remember a miscarriage. It seems like it was 20 years ago! There’s real years and COVID years.
Fantastic recap – thank you! I cannot abide grown women screaming like kindergartners on the playground. Your and Tamara’s recaps are so informative I feel like I’ve watched the show painlessly! Thank you x 10 to you both.
I’m with you on that, LurkLady. I can’t handle screamers, on shows or real life, lol. I don’t watch this one for that reason, but SO appreciate Nanette’s recaps!
that’s so funny; I haven’t actually watched many of these shows in ages mostly do to lack of time; M2M is my favorite and I don’t recall a lot of screaming, such as we see with RHOOC, or NJ or NY! I love the recaps because I don’t get to watch; makes me feel like I am watching. Thanks Nanette and Tamara!
Most of the screaming involves Heavenly. Even when the others may have some kind of tiff, they’re more likely to talk shit about each other to the others than to yell. (Partly because the level of drinking doesn’t match the RH level of drinking.)
Quad can do her share of yelling too, but even that often involves Heavenly stirring it up behind her.
The main difference between these ladies when they do beef is that, when it comes down to it, they support each other and come together to do good works. And the wonderful men, who USUALLY provide some levity and sanity.

Another great recap Nanette as always!!!
Scott and Contessa really fascinate me. I don’t think we’ll ever know the real truth. I like Dr. Kieran so I want Anila to stay next season. Actually all the husbands are great we need a husbands show!
Someone mentioned Quad’s put on drag queen voice. Ugh I cannot stand it!
I’ve gone back to watch Season 2 and her and Mariah have the most annoying talking heads
I’ll be bummed when this season is over. Wish Bravo would bring back M2M LA and Southern Charm New Orleans. They had the most fascinating cast.
I can do without M2M LA. It just didn’t do it for me. I THINK PC Kelly felt the same way. Contessa had a real connection with the ladies, but I think production pushed Heavenly into it. Or she pushed her own pushy self into it. Enough Heavenly already.
I couldn’t stand the main women in Southern Charm New Orleans.
BUT … if we could have a Summer House / Southern Charm type crossover with the MEN of M2M and SC NOLA … that would be a sleeper hit for Bravo. I would tune in every week! And buy whatever swag Bravo would sell.
Thanks for the recap Nanette! You really cover it all so well. I love this show! One of my favs. They go at each other hard, but they support each other even harder. I love the men on this franchise too (eh well, not Scott so much). I feel like Scott is a man of secrets, and I’m hoping whatever he has done in secret comes to light.
In the past, I have not cared much for Quad at times, but I’m liking single Quad. She was cracking me up on the reunion. Then, there are times Toya is too much for me, but I think Simone characterized Toya very well. Toya does get pretty aggressive, but then she can turn around and have a good heart.
I’m looking forward to part 2.
It’s looking like the men are liked by all who watch. Now that Gregory and Lisa’s husband/estranged Lothario are gone. I think/hope Scott is redeemable.
I think we are about to see the true mettle of our guys, based on a peek of them (I think Cecil and Eugene) realizing Scott is being untruthful. They support their friend Scott, but I think they will call him out.
I think Simone would make a better counselor than the usual schlocky borderline Charlatans across the Bravo shows.
I love Quad. She is a bit much at times, but good TV. And she loves her dogs. i always give positive points to those who love their animals. (Except for Ramona, who fakes it and lets them poop anywhere!]
Love all the husbands except Scott, who seems like a gaslighting liar. He was lying at every turn.
I think they all screech (except Jackie) and their high screaming voices makes me crazy. Especially Quad. Why did they bring her back?
I felt bad for Toya at various points. Anila is a poser. I bet that house gets sold (if it can be as it seems cavernous and way too expensive for the neighborhood) as they can’t afford it. Anila wants to be an influencer. I was laughing my ass off when she got screwed by Lisa Nicole (another one with a high screechy voice) and complained, yet she didn’t mind letting the glam people wait for their money.
Does anyone think Heavenly looked great? If she doesn’t open her mouth? I loved her dress, which I thought was much classier than the others.
Heavenly looked gorgeous. Until she opened her piehole!
I loved her dress and her hair and makeup. The cut of her dress framed her face nicely on the TV screen. That color of blush pink (one of my favorite colors) is flattering on every skin tone, but especially contrasted against the deep skin tones.
Thank you so much for the great recaps! You and TT have allowed me to stay up to date when I couldn’t watch my shows due to work obligations due to covid.
I can understand Toya’s situation. When you think about it, she’s the non-doctor in the group who also doesn’t work so I can understand the fear that her husband could catch covid and bring it home. This is the first time I will say I’m proud of her for owning her behavior. It must have sucked to not have anyone of the ladies ask how she’s doing.
This comment 👌.
I had pretty much quit all Bravo last year due to work and covid and I fell back down the rabbit hole today binging BH now M2M. Had to start at episode 6 as that’s where my dvr seems to have started recording. So read this while watching…
I’ve just gotta say the anxiety is real, I’m getting it in spades right now. Last year was pure hell for everyone. I happen to work in a LTC facility and we are struggling to staff, mourn our losses, take care of our families and then ourselves. Believe me when I say everyone deals with these stresses differently. We need to recognize that and be tender with our thoughts and in our actions.
Luv you Nanette!
Hi Kipper! So glad to see you here. I hope things are getting better for you and your family.
It seems we have several people here working at care facilities or caring for sick loved ones. It’s a relief when you check in. I cannot imagine working at a LTC facility during the pandemic. So many people dying alone or watching from afar as loved ones died alone.
Then, after a heavy day, seeing the antimaskers whining over a piece of cloth. Choosing that to call fascist. Let them work a day sorting the hazardous materials from one day at a hospital or care home. That’d learn ‘em.
No one checked on them and I could barely hear over Heavenly, but I think I heard Toya say she checked on someone’s mother and brother.
I do not know Dr. Eugene, but I think I know enough about him to know that he would have shared his feelings with Toya but not the details of how scary it was. And she knows him well enough to know that he would try not to,scare her.
That would have been awful. And he was working longer hours. That left her isolated.
Thanks for explaining Toya’s mindset. I too thought wow Toya everybody was going through something. I felt bad that no one seem to understand what she as trying to say. Toya and Eugene are my favorite couple on the show. I am not a fan of Heavenly or Quad. I don’t see what others like about either of them. I don’t feel Simone is jealous of Jackie, just don’t see that at all. Simone don’t have any reason to be jealous of Jackie. Jackie gives Heavenly a pass on her nastiness and never say anything on it. The preview from last week showing Quad telling Eugene to stay out of the women business and she was going to give him a gift, and he told her to make sure it was expensive. I was cheering Eugene on, can’t wait to watch part II.
