It may be a family thing. Her last diary entry on the station's website had this bad news:

Dear Diary,
Forgive me for this will be short. I will fill you in on all the great and scary details tomorrow. I am going on absolutely no sleep because I was worried sick about Charlie all night. He was rushed to the hospital yesterday afternoon after he ran full-force into flag pole at school. An ambulance came to the school and strapped him down to a board! Holy cow! He seems perfectly fine, but wow, all I kept thinking was "SWELLING OF THE BRAIN SWELLING OF THE BRAIN," so I was awake listening to every little tiny noise last night.
My day started off great yesterday because I won 200 bucks on a 2 dollar scratcher. I was going to take the kids to Toys R Us for a fun shopping spree. That didn't happen because Charlie got injured.
Anyway, I will tell you more tomorrow, Diary. All's well so far today, except for my head!
See you, Diary.
