(((((((((((((((((((( little granite )))))))))))))))))))))
I think it's very kindhearted of you to be there for your step mom and father, and brave too (I have been in this kind of situation it is so very scary and stressful, isn't it).
I am very glad to hear that you went to see T - that's some good advice your DH gave you - T is your own resource, even if not perfect yet, and it's perfectly riight for you to go there for support under so much pressure!!! Good for DH too!
if you are looking for anyone's two cents on whether or not to email your T - I say go for it!!!!!

you need reinforcements at this point, and even writing the email will help you release some of the stress, and hopefully you'll get a helpful response from T which will do you more good.
Here's wishing the best for you ((((((((((( hugs ))))))))))))))
