In the middle of all of that, to stop cutting and call T and ask for a phone appointment.....that's just awesome. I am so impressed that you did that.
When my T goes on vacation, he always leaves me a voice mail to listen to while he's gone. It's helpful sometimes...but honestly, about halfway through the vacation, the magic of it kind of wears off.
There may be a rupture when he comes back. And then there will be a repair, and that will bring you even closer to T, and help you in your journey of healing.
Be safe.
