Update 6: This is the update that nobody ever wants to make. I am sure you know where this is going, so if you need a few moments to gather yourself to read more, please do so. 1/ I hadn’t planned on posting this update until later today, to give Toby some time, but the news is out and my DMs are full of people asking for confirmation, and everyone who loves Kris deserves to know. 2/

I’m visiting @krisis86 in the ICU. They are still not responsive. Anything you tweet to me, I will read out loud to them. Only tweets, though. I cannot manage DMs, texts, etc at the same time.

I’ll let you know when I have to leave. Pause. They’re doing a test that should take an hour.

A few weeks ago, I drove by a freeway rest stop at night and even though I had to pee, I held it until I got home, two hours later, because from a young age I had been told that rest stops after dark weren't safe for women.

I have never known a woman who was attacked at a rest stop after dark. I was with my husband, who would have defended me, should something have happened. I was in Utah, in the middle of nowhere. The likelihood of anything happening was minute.

And yet, we kept driving.
