    poor child, thats going to hard.

    You say she is going to sign contract on Wednesday, but don't forget you are not covered by your insurance without one so if he is starting tomorrow you need to have something in place before she leaves him.

    it'll be fine hon. often the shorter the settling in the better they settle. is your short-term contract an NCMA one? I'd still try to get the full one signed asap
