Dear T,
One of the weird things about the T-client relationship is that with, say, a friend--even a pretty distant Facebook friend where we just occasionally comment on each other's posts--I could message or post (depending on the relationship) and say, "Hope you're feeling better! Were you still able to go on your trip?" But I feel like it would be weird if I did that with you (and it's not like you'd reach out to me in the reverse situation either).

I imagine you'd be fine with it if I emailed something like that and would understand, especially after the discussions of the past month. (Maybe you're even expecting me to?) But I'm also trying to resist doing that, at least for a bit. And I see K tomorrow. Maybe I could just talk to her a bit about how it's difficult. Wish I was seeing R, as she knows me and my relationship with you. Though maybe it will be helpful to get a different perspective on things.

Miss you--8 days to go.

Love,
LT
