This is where Pam's new strength really shows through.  Strength from carrying a new life.  Strength from being a survivor.  Strength from having total confidence in someone else's love.  Ah Kara, you frakked up both of 'em on your own.

Author's Response: Poor Kara. I'm not sure she ever had a chance (until now, of course, but we don't know who/what she is now, quite yet). As we discussed, I wanted Pam to be strong because of what she's been through, and who she's been with. I love the idea that they are thriving together.
