You know, in case you're reading. I'm doubtful...

Miss you.

We are both getting a bit seasoned, aren't we? :-))

Hope you had a wonderful day.

Thanks Alex. And thanks for letting me know about 10ders post. I really don't read Babble anymore on anywhere near a regular basis. Months go by sometimes.

:(

It's sad to lose things that were an important part of one's life at one time.

But that doesn't mean that I don't want to keep in touch with you. You have my email, you know. I'd rather not lose you.

Awwww, thanks! :)

I need to put my email monitor back on that account.

I really need to write you. Things have been eventful around here. I saw my therapist three times a few months ago when there was a death in my family. And then a couple of times recently when I had sort of a meltdown from just too much stress. I was surprised to find that he can still help me. It still seems like magic, since I can't really point to anything...

I expect that I will be able to contact him when I need him. Especially since he is now being better at taking responsibility for having a plan in place to prevent something like that from happening again. He now admits that he should have had that plan in place before. So I'll probably call him a few times, or maybe even several times, a year. Which is what I had in mind, but was surprisingly difficult to do.

I'd love to hear what's going on with you!

I never really knew what happened with all that. But recently, my 75-year old p-doc called to cancel an appointment because he wasn't feeling well. I got freaked out that something serious was wrong with him. When I saw him the following week, I said I had worried that something serious had happened to him and asked, if it did, would I be notified? He hesitated and said, well sure, I mean I'm sure someone would notify you. And I realized he had no plan in place at all. And he's 75, where a heart attack or stroke is a real possibility.

You'd think they would have more of a sense of responsibility about that. My therapist said it was like writing a will. Something he vaguely knew he ought to do, but didn't want to think about. We had not only discussed it, but I had brought him an article about it. But I could only lead the horse to water, I couldn't make him drink.

I'm glad your therapist is feeling better.
