I lucked out with my pdoc, but he’s almost 65 and I worry about him retiring. When am I going to have to get a new one. I imagine the service will just assign me a new pdoc, but they’ll never be another quite like mine. The service through which I see my pdoc has a 24/7 number you call when you’re in crisis, though they did end up sending the police crisis team on me when I used it.

It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence, to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: "And this, too, shall pass away." How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!
