And it doesn't even make sense. There is one thing to want to talk to your mother to learn more about her psyche and what makes you you. It is another thing to not only invite her to live with you, but in another's home. That's quite the violation, and it doesn't even make sense. It's as though another set of writers write this episode.
Drama, yes, but poor drama. I think good drama has to be rooted in reality to some extent. Otherwise instead of being gripped by the story, you are watching it thinking, this is silly, and not fully engaging with it.
Instead of introducing Rose before she was needed, they could have found out about Evan's leukemia then realized that they needed to trace her, as she might be a match for his treatment. Far more drama if it was a race against time to find her before Evan seccumbed to his illness.

Wow. Major powerful show today. I loved Chas going off on Kerry. I loved her soul searching, realizing that she didn't want the prosthetics. (Can mastectomy patients get reconstruction in the UK or is that cosmetic and out of pocket?). They didn't mention that third option at all that I can remember. I loved her knowing that she was more than her body. I especially loved how wonderful Charity was and helped her to get over that hump by being there for her.
The Dingles are a mess, but I love how they stick together when times are bad.
Then the baby. When I saw that changing table without any raised edge, I knew what was about to happen and the thought made me sick, and that thump when Evan hit the floor was horrible. That baby is so lucky that he wasn't brain damaged from the fall.
However, that fall might have been a stroke of fate if it allowed for a diagnosis that led to early warnings about a potential disease as awful as leukemia, to allow the family to stay one step ahead of it. I'm glad that this didn't turn into an investigation into abuse. But I'm guilty as well. When she saw the bruise, the first thing that I wondered was whether Rose was alone with the baby and was she drinking at that time.
