The bottom line, do I still exist for the other person when I am gone from their lives and if so how, where, when, what does it look like?

Yes!!! I SO get this! My T will often say to me 'I have you in my heart.' or 'I keep you in my heart.' but it never comforts me because it feels so vague. Exactly what you said - what does that look like??
Have you asked your T those questions? I admit, I have not. I do try to reassure myself of her continued 'love' and support by reminding myself that although I may get busy during the day and not actively think about my children, it doesn't mean that I love them or care for them any less. But yes, to the child inside....makes no difference.
