I know this is confidential and it is a breach of confidentiality but my first pdoc really was my hero in so many ways and thus I loved him so. He was sick during and increasingly so after I saw him and actually we loosely kept in touch, even got together for dinner/lunch...seldom. .

I'm glad you got the opportunity to be there for him. I'm also glad he let you in that much. What is the confidentiality breach? You should just feel good that you were able to show him that you care before he died.

That is huge in my book. See, I think that clients and therapists can see each other outside of the "session" and it's handled maturly by two adults. It's a shame that it is so discouraged. It really can be ultimate healing I think...
