Awww, you guys made me tear all up. I'm afraid we needed those prayers. My mother in law died tonight - two grandparents in two? days for my son. (is it two? i lose track.) It's an unbelievable week.

My therapist has been pretty terrific. He did something that makes me feel for the first time ever that he really does care about me, Dinah, as a human being rather than as a generic client.

The next couple of days will be very very difficult. I wish I could just curl up in my therapist's office and never leave.

 

Dinah YOUR MIL :*( (nm)

Dinah,

What a horrid week for you and your son. So much to cope with and so close to holidays.

Your therapist seems to be there for you, and as much as I can, I am, too.

I'm sorry about your mother-in-law. Give your husband an extra hug from "us". You've all been hit so hard.

I have always believed that God calls people home this time of year. It is such a holy time and a time that we recall fond memories anyway. What better time to remember our loved ones with candles and prayers.

That doesn't make this easy. I'm glad to hear your therapist is there for you and you feel it. Do you want to share what he did?

Hugs from me,
Daisy

It's tough on my son, and it's tough for us to balance being supportive to each other while also feeling free to ask for support.

I'm starting to have some difficulties, and I think I'm going to have to assess what medication would be helpful, at least short term.

Daisy, I love what you said about the holidays. While I was feeling sad that neither had managed to hold on till after Christmas, that is a very comforting idea. I know this Christmas will be full of good memories of them.

What my therapist did was suggest that he was thinking of coming to the funeral. Since I didn't specifically answer him, I suppose he let the subject drop and hasn't raised it again. But the fact that he even considered it is something that will always make me trust that he does actually care about me, not just client #463, and that there is some of that third sort of caring that gardenergirl described. (GG, I still think in terms of that post. It has been so very helpful to me.)

Ugh. The funeral. I don't know how I'm going to manage that. I'm going to have to stay as far away from my mother as geography will allow. :( It's horrible that such an awful time is made worse.

Oh my goodness, Dinah. What an awful time. No one deserves to cope with so much all at once. I'm thinking of you and your family and sending out as much warmth and comfort as I can.

I'm so glad your T said what he did. What a gift. And I think it's absolutely okay for him to go if you think it will help.

Maybe you can maneuver yourself to be on the other side of the room in order to "efficiently" deal with the guests? Would your mother see through framing it that way?

Take care, sweet Dinah. We're here for you however you need us.
