This was such an interesting exchange, because I could tell SAWE and I MEANT the same thing, but were using exactly opposite words to say it. Sort of like how stressing a different word in a sentence can change the meaning. Your comment about the breast resonated with me and definitely informed my response. But trying to hold onto what the forgetting meant or didn't mean and by whom or when was very slippery to me! Triggers start going off - it almost does become like a math story problem, doesn't it? Figuring out when the train switches to the transference track!
