i like your style and writing, how you're not overly sentimental or dwell on details or use too many descriptions, but instead let each page be a small picture and let me speculate on the other things. really touching story.
one thing though: the choice, it's not clear what it is that you're referring to with the yes/no-answer, "go or not go?" would perhaps work better.
It's my very first entry at ludum dare, so I appreciate your suggestion. :)
Maybe a background music could improve the mood of the game!
I also agree with kristoffer zetterberg about the yes/no choice.

It says "“Shit“" on Monday 16:07 after "letting yourself be sent out by the nurse". If this is a typo I think it's ok to correct it now. If it's intentional, nevermind.
I also think the yes/no is a little confusing. I thought I had to answer the question : "difficult?".

(But thank you for playing it! :))
Thanks for your suggestions
Good work nicely implemented.
Looking forward to seeing more stuff from you..
The Twine text looks very good. The writing is very simple, but this is a story where flashy stylistics would be out of place. Some beautiful phrases.
Powerful.
