Somewhat Offbeat: "Momma" Feels Heartbroken Partly Because...

She may have at least contributed to causing Reilly's ear infection, and she of course feels heartbroken regarding another subject. At least Reilly finally had her ears trimmed in order for her to have ears that wouldn't get bacteria stuck in them. That doesn't take "Momma"'s heartbreak that she can really feel in her heart and even the rest of her body—e.g., her muscles and her hand that just trembled a little—today. She's even told Reilly about her heartbreak and how it's contributed to her not being as good of a "Momma" as she could be to Reilly.
