Oh, Krazibean, I'm sorry you feel so bad

Can you expain to her at your next appointment that you were hoping she would give you some transitional objects to put in it? That perhaps you misunderstood, but that that's what you were really expecting and hoping for?

I do think it's really special that she made the box for you. I would be touched (and shocked beyond belief!) if my T took the time to decorate something like that for me with his own two hands. She was probably thinking of you while she did it, and decorating it in a way that she thought you would like. I would love to know my T was thinking of me while I wasn't there - and to be thinking of me AND making a gift for me at the same time?! Wow.

I can hear how hurt and disappointed you are, though, and I'm really, really sorry. Our Ts can touch such deep, painful parts of us sometimes.

Sending you lots and lots of
