Dear T,
Thank you for specifying that you were taking your H for cataract surgery Wed. instead of just "surgery." The last thing I need right now is to think your H (or you! or MC!) potentially have some terminal illness. And thanks for being so open to talking about stuff with MC and his wife. I don't know why I need to talk about it so much...but for some reason, I just do. Yeah, it's probably the childhood thing with my parents, but maybe it's more than that? It's like if I keep talking about it, maybe I can really unlock what's behind it...

And I'll wear that thing you told me to after my shower tomorrow. But if something awful happens, it's on you! (I know, I know, magical thinking.) I think sometimes I forget how much of a role OCD plays in my life beyond the contamination fears. But when you've been living with something as long as you can remember, it just starts to seem normal to you, you know?

Love,
LT
