So what is to judge? That's nice as now you have him present when you need him--his voice.
I remember when I was at Menninger's and my doctor was going on vacation for a month, I was beside myself. He gave me a picture of himself, and I also had one of his cigarette lighters as he smoked a pipe at the time, and back then I smoked cigarettes. Anyway, I would take out his lighter and smell it (okay no jokes people), and then it felt like he was there because it smelled like his pipe tobacco. So, I felt he was there with me when he was gone. This maybe sounds stupid, but it meant a lot to me at the time, and so I do understand.
