I have been relieved of a big mother-guilt today. My son had a dental check up again at long last (i let my own fear of dentists keep me from getting him in for a checkup) this morning - no cavities, thank Goddess, and my h sprung for the $99 laser teeth cleaning since it had been so long instead of the one insurance covers.
Also, I called one of the LPC's recommended by my insurance for him to see, and scheduled his first of 5 free sessions through our EAP (employee assistance program). He's going a week from today. I have worked my way through my guilt about all of that. And remain proud of him for asking, and thankful that we have the kind of mother-son relationship where he felt comfortable asking me to get him an appointment.
And it's Friday, even!
Hugs to those who want them!
