Oh dear that is HARD. Will you be able to have any contact at all while your t is on leave? Even just email or an occassional phone call, anything??? Will there be a fill in T? (not nearly as good, i know....)

My t has been gone for an emergency for over a year. We talk on the phone, text, and skype whenever she is available. I can still send her emails. I keep a journal, do collages. I read a LOT to keep my mind busy. I try to come up with lots of creative projects to give me something to do. I go for a lot of walks. I read even more books and take a lot of naps. Sometimes i just cry a lot and miss her.
