Nottrustin, How about if we pray for each other and for each other's T? My T is supposed to find out what stage her cancer is, today. She said that she would tell me, but my next session isn't until the 13th. I am thinking about either calling her or emailing her just to let her know I am thinking of her.
I hope someone gets back to you, soon.

Just spoke to EMDR T. She is amazing she acknowledged that this is a difficult situation and all my feelings are normal. She has offered to stay late tomorrow and see me after her last regular appointment.

Prayer is always good. Right now prayer is all I have. I would be happy to say one for you and your T.

So sorry you are going through this.

Feeling pathetic. My T appointment should have started 5 minutes ago. I keep looking at my emails and phone hoping there will be something from T asking where I am. That her email waa hacked and she is fine and at the office waiting for me.

I'm so sorry you're going through this. Reality is tough when pain and suffering are involved. At least you will get some answers tomorrow when you see EMDR T. Hugs.

The longer I don't hear something the harder this gets. The worse my thoughts get. A part of me says that she is healing from whatever is going on so she will make contact when she is a little better. Another part of me fears the horrific worse and people are grieving and the last thing on their mind is her clients (rightfully so) . I want to email her just saying I am thinking about her and praying for healing.. .but

Thank you!!! Still nothing. I had an appointment with EMDR T today which helped. She validated and understood everything I am going through. We did quite a bit of processing and she will help me with through this. She also feels it t would be appropriate to email T and just say I am thinking and praying for her. Not everyday or anything bit an occasional.

I’ve been thinking about you too, and I’m glad your EMDR T is a great support. I also agree that emailing your T is a good idea.

It all just seems so surreal. Anybody else in my life I could ask mutual friends or family members how things are you g and ask for an update. I actually recently had very brief email contact with her son. My kiddo will be attending school where her son lives. With my permission, she emailed him and CC'd me asking for housing leads. She said I was a friend. With her permission I emailed him back thanking him. A huge part of me wants to contact him. I know that is not appropriate though. Ugh

Oh I have thought about all the angles to contacting him. However, I feel like it wouldn't be fair to use the friend angle. Since, her SO know my contact information when they are ready to provide information to clients they will do so. I feel like emailing her son would be abusing the situation because she had contact with him for me for a specific reason...k ow what I mean?

Over the last few years T has been teaching me a lot about flowering gardening. Last fall I planted a couple of flowers because T had some and I LOVED them. She gave me pointers. A couple of weeks ago I mentioned I thought it was dead because it had NOTHING. She said don't touch it, it could still be okay as it shouldn't really have growth for a month or so. Hubby just noticed huge growth and lots of green. He said it is a sign that she may be in the hospital and unavailable but still taking care of me and will be back. . I love my hubby!!

Just received an email from her SO as he knows that we have a long term relationship. He wants to keep me as updated as possible. She is in critical condition and the next few days are important. He gave me a better way to contact him of I want to so I did.

Still scary but at least I have an idea what is happening.

oh man, poor T! How terrible I am glad you at least know. I hope she is okay and recovers. Ugh,that is so awful. I would be flipping out if this was my T, and i spend every session never making eye contact and hiding behind pillows.

He appears to have put 2 and 2 together as to who I am. Because T and I have been working together so long and lived in a small community I have met him a couple of times and he has met my children and husband.
