Thanks (((Open Eyes)))

The shrink and I had a very looooong talk yesterday. She said my feelings were valid and she understands them....BUT (alway gotta be a but in there)..I needed to have a little faith and trust my wife. Let her take the lead and go from there. She reminded me that while my wife may seem fragile at the moment....she is still a very strong woman. She may be struggling but she is still here...dealing...that says a lot. Just have a little faith in her.

She set my mind at ease about some things. Whatever is going to happen is going to happen.....I can't control that. We will deal with it, if and when we need to. She's also gonna give me a good swift kick in the pants if I don't start communicating again. If I need to start the conversation off with an email or letter....do it. She said my wife won't talk to me if she thinks I don't want to talk.....give her an opening. I guess I need to get over this strong and silent type thing.

We're gonna do a retake on couples therapy today instead of my wife's regular appointment.
