Thanks everyone! I was wondering if anyone else would be as awestruck as I was by this email. I guess I got my answer I'm going to print all of your responses and show him that he is making a difference in more places than he realizes. That is, after I print the 6500 of them to wallpaper my room, LOL.

There was another line that I left out because it dealt with something that I was not sure whether to disclose or not. But, in hopes that it may help someone, I will. In my email to him, I told him that I have to fight the urge to tell him that I am going to kill myself/harm myself to get him to give in because my anxiety gets so fierce. I then said that I wanted him to know that I struggled with this but that I didn't want to choose that road. His response:

"I applaud your acknowledging and rejecting the option of threatening suicide to demand my attention. I am both admiring and appreciative of that."
