Rainbow Dash usually had her head in the clouds, but she always thought she knew up from down. When an incredible revelation sends her life into a tailspin, she finds herself at the mercy of emotions she never thought she had, faced with hard questions and impossible choices.

Life is full of changes, but none of them are quite as disturbing as having a horn pop out of your skull…

Original Lauren Faust canon; non-alicorn Twilight, non-alicorn Cadance, no ascension. Diverges from the cartoon after season 3, with nods to later continuity wherever possible. Contains mature themes.

When I enter the hospital room, it is full of young Unicorns, Ponies, and Pegasi gathered around Rainbows bed,
Good morning mares, Im Doctor Stable, and I'll just be checking on Rainbow dash here. I announce as I lift her x-rays into the air to get better lighting.
Is she gonna be okay? says the apple pony
Oh, I'm so worried. says the yellow pony with a butterfly cutie mark.
Is her face gonna stay that way?

Doctor Stable has been letting on more tasks than he can handle recently, and he must find a way to balance his time more wisely, or he just might go insane! This is pretty much the events of "Read it and Weep" in Doctor Stable's point of view.

NOTE - still looking for names of some of the characters.
