T didn't even look at me, but said seamlessly to everyone, "right now, sunny is very sad, she is reacting to what I just said and a wave of sadness has come over her."

OMG. your T wonderfully perceptive!! That must have been amazing to experience.

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">It was an amazing experience. I was thinking today how powerful it was just to have someone notice I was sad and acknowledge it. At Thanksgiving dinner today, I was with my parents and sisters and I remembered how a couple of years ago, we were all gathered together at a table to discuss my father's demise (my dad called the meeting), because his health is terrible. I was having such terrible problems in my marriage, was totally depressed, crying every day, and this was too much for me to sit there and discuss my father's death with him and the other family members. I remember just sitting at the table with tears streaming down my face and no one in my family said a word about this. I could have been a rock or part of the scenery or sitting there with a smile on my face. Just no comment, let's ignore sunny's sadness. I didn't think anything of it at the time, that is just how my family is. But after this experience with T noticing and commenting on my sadness, I see that that can be a comforting thing and make you feel loved. Hey, someone noticed what I was feeling! How powerful is that?
