It's normal to feel like you are losing the connection during an extended absence. I sure did this past summer. And I had letters galore and so much to tell T when he came back--but when I spoke to him all I could do was cry my eyes out.
So, don't worry....you will reconnect with T. When you see her just stay in the moment and enjoy her presence and try to re-establish your connection. There will be time for all the other stuff.
