Hi FP, I didn't realize you had an agreement to email. When do you see her next? I hope you can clarify your use of email with her next time, because it does sound as if this communication method is not working for you.

I'm sorry you have had a stroke and understand your worries about blood pressure. Should you go to the hospital? Can you practice any of the techniques you may know to keep BP down, such as relaxation, meditation, exercise?

It is great you are aware of the crisis resources in your area. Please take care and call the crisis line if you need to.
