Hey that's great sister--which book of Pema Chodron's? I'll be excitedly waiting to see what you think of her writing and I truly hope you enjoy it. She is quite insightful and outside the box.
I'm curious that your T wondered if you and the mutual friend talked about him. Sounds like his own needs getting involved there.
I'm glad you're comfortable with his disclosing. That's all that matters!
