Dear dear Dr. M,
I had a tough 2 days. I'm hurting everywhere. I have temperature and I am scared and I am cold and I can't tell anyone. I wish I could tell my mother and go cry there but I can't. It's so heart-breaking you know. She is sleeping in the other room but I miss her so much, funny how close and how far away she is at the same time. I feel so betrayed. I feel so alone.
Have you ever experienced anything like that? I will never know. I will never know how much we share and how many times you've had that feeling of "ah, I've been there!" while I'm talking. Not that it's important. Honestly, I'd rather think you have not gone through certain things.
Thank you for the acts of great kindness you are doing and for allowing me to pour out my heart. I think I might well be your most pain-in-the-*** client. You are a great person, T.
