Thanks, EM. I think I am afraid to get even a little bit attached to her because I remember how painful it was when I had to end with former T (when she got sick). I want to spare myself that pain. So I am holding back some but I know that is interfering with my therapy. I'm just not sure how to work through it. I think yesterday was a step forward though in that we talked about potentially being able to be less dependent/attached to my parents. HUGS Kit
