It has all been good things that I recall in my mind (that is good, right?)
Here are some of my favorites:
"It is ok" said repeatedly in a gentle, caring voice while looking into my eyes. I shook my head no but she just kept saying this.
"It is ok. You are just acknowledging your feelings and if you can see it as simply that---it is a good thing"
"Can I have a hug?" (Love that one)
"This is not unexpected in light of what you have been through"
"I will come sit by you when asked"
"Are you ok?" (So simple but the way she says it with such softness and care...)
