Hi IAChild, All,

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone. I hope that 2008 brings a better year than 2007!

Well, things are still status quo here at my sitch. W still finds it necessaqry to run the streets two nights a week (well, more actually if you follow closely) and I am still trying to DB the whole thing. We are still doing the MC (next appt. on Jan 7) and I hope that helps.

Often I get the feeling that W is still very much disengaged from the family. She still has a lot of anger, etc. She tells me she feels "smoothered" every time I tell her I love her. In fact, it makes her angry to hear that. I can't figure that one out. Anyway, I think our MC finally saw the real her in our last session. She was angry, bitter and a bit mean. He actually pulled her aside as we were leaving to see what her problem was.

Best,

--Chris
