I kept really busy today, and the inside kids made her a card, we kept busy with my husband and around the house which helped.

We did FINALLY get some texts from our T late tonight! She said she's ok and things will calm down after next week.She doesn't expect to work next week. But we can still e-mail & text her even if she isn't able to reply. T said to let the inside kids know she's been thinking of them. So its good to know she's okay. That helps.

We are doing a special journal and writing things down/drawing pictures to share when we're able to go back to therapy.

I think that it will HOPEFULLY make things easier this week to not expect to be going to therapy-- we know the stuff our T has going on this week, and she said she has to go out of town for 2 days so she's not expecting to work, so we won't have that expectation of her calling back/going to see her...does that make sense? But at least we know that we still have that connection with her and that helps.
Hey SarahMichelle,

I am glad she finally let you know what was happening and I hope after next week you can get back to therapy. You have been so brave through this tough time and I think keeping busy is a good idea because even if it doesn't remove the difficulty at this time, it may help a bit.
I understand that it's easier to know how things stand and what to expect instead of being left in the lurch, not knowing what's happening or going to happen.
I think it sounds really good to journal about your feelings and for the kids to makes her a card Great healthy coping mechanisms!

We are all here for you all during the break
