I am wondering if there are others on psych central who have experienced this? I lost my last therapist due to his serious and sudden illness. He was diagnosed with Parkinson's in June of 2012, and in July of this year, suddenly and unexpectedly developed severe cognitive symptoms. He had to quit his practice.

The therapist I saw prior to him, had a brain tumor. He kept assuring me that he was doing well with treatment, and that he would be back at work in a matter of months. Unfortunately, that was not the truth, and I'm not sure why he wasn't honest with me. I found out he had died several months after he passed.

I am still working through my grief with the most recent T.

I'd like to hear others' experiences with these issues. The reason I joined Psych Central was because I needed more support at this time. So far, I've received a lot of support, encouragement, and caring suggestions.

If I can figure it out, I'm going to post a poll with this.
