I hope she's open to hearing your ideas, and that somehow you can have the best goodbye possible. I honor your efforts in that. I have the sneaking suspicion I won't be nearly that gracious.
We had one of those absolutely fabulous sessions last Saturday. I'm reassured by the strangest things, but I was reassured. However, I left with an image I just can't shake.
You know how I said that if he ever tries to leave, I'll wrap myself around his legs like a snake and he'll have to peel me off him? I suddenly got the image that instead, I'll wrap myself around his legs and he'll just detach them and walk away. Because I never did have the real him, just the therapist him, and he can take off the therapist him any time.
He laughed and sighed when I told him that. But... I think there may be truth to it.
