[Cav, Graham, Gwen]

I'm terribly sorry to interrupt your Christmas celebrations, and hope they have gone well, but I need to request an emergency meeting for first thing 26 December.

It's regarding Ellie.

(OOC- journaled after this, this, and- coincidentally- this ...also added Cav, 'cause I'm SPECIAL Also Cav is part of the below wards as well...)

	Yes, we'll be there, sir. In the spirit of full disclosure, Ellie will be there as well. [Gwen] No, but we need to discuss her situation. I'll be the last one to excuse her actions, but there are definitely things we need to discuss in person, the sooner the better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't do my job properly if I'm walking into this blind, Owen. What have you found out? And Elspeth should not be in the room for this. We need to talk about her, not to her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'll be the very first to admit that I'm no healer, but I really think the cumulative effects of Ellie's repeated head injuries have left her what some form of undiagnosed brain damage, leading to her anger management issues and obvious poor impulse control.

I think at the very least that she should be allowed to tell you herself, in her own words. After that, yes, absolutely- we'll meet amongst ourselves and talk next steps. I really feel like this is not a cut-and-dried situation.

	If this is the case, she needs to be under the care of a Healer, not leading a professional Quidditch team, which is clearly exacerbating her distress and her unpredictable behaviour. Surely that's as obvious to you as it is to me. I've already heard from her. And I'm not in the mood to listen to any more of her excuses or dodging responsibility for her actions.

	I agree with you completely. I also worry what it might look like if we don't, as a team, find a way to help her, rather than chucking her entirely and washing our hands of the situation, only for her circumstances to come to light at some point down the road and have us looking like we abandoned a former player in obvious distress.

	As will my children, if they manage to wake up as early as their old man. They are minority-stake owners. [Owen] I dislike surprises. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

After having a talk with her early this morning I believe the cumulative effects of Ellie's repeated head injuries have left her what some form of undiagnosed brain damage, leading to her anger management issues and obvious poor impulse control.

I convinced her to come in to discuss the situation with everyone, so we can determine what should and can be done next.

	Do we need the medic? Or a specialist? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Graham mr_dragon 2017-12-26 07:49 am UTC (link)
	The short answer is "yes", but I'm not sure if they would need to be at this particular meeting or not. (Reply to this) (Parent)
