Hello again,

You havent heard much from me lately, but I am still around. I needed a break. Self-preservation, Compassion overload, Kicking the Geraldo addiction call it whatever you will but I am on the road to it. I havent been reading here much lately because it has been too painful. I didnt want to wallow, I wanted to forget, and put as much distance and perspective on my situation as possible.

You guys have a terrific organization here, and I genuinely appreciate all that you have taught me. Even if I couldnt help a friend, maybe I can at least use what Ive learned to help my future patients. I just wanted you all to know that, and that Ill still be peeking in from time to time.

Sooooo...it has been almost two months now since my situation with Geraldo officially ended. If I were in AA, Id a get a chip or something wouldnt I? Haha

Regards,
doc

Take care,

Hey -- you DO deserve a chip! It is nice to hear from you & see that you seem to be doing well. I know what you mean about breaking away. I find myself trying to read enough to find understanding, but not so much that I get engulfed in survivor issues that don't belong to me.

Your patients are definitely going to benefit from your compassion.

If I get sick, I want you to care for me.

Thanks for thinking about us, it's nice to know we made a difference.
