I do indeed. *g* (I don't tangent as far as the insta-aging motif on that page, but definitely familiar with it.)
I'm actually having a lot of fun mentally playing out the other possibility, though. I haven't been on forkni in years, and don't know what points were covered in the discussion there, but the two things it occurs to me off the bat to account for are (a) how all three women are only now starting to have psychological problems, or at least they're only now becoming critical; and (b) Norma's Social Security check. I've always mentally explained the latter by benefits simply having kicked in because the right date arrived, of course -- I don't know how that works in Canada, and am not certain it's even called Social Security -- but it could point to her having been retired previously.
