Worse before Better?

[Sophie]

I found out H's L gives a free first consultation (which I couldn't find other than Criminal cases)...and H's L offers hourly billing instead of a retainer.

Why does that make me feel better?

Because now I don't think H got a huge lump of support money from anyone.

I would place money that his family probably doesn't know that he did this, or if H said anything to them...it was downplayed.

H knows his family is upset and disappointed in him, although they don't confront him....ever!!

H's family is overtly non-confrontational....and they do NOT ask questions.

That used to bug me...it took me a long time to 'get it'...that they could support me, love me...and keeps their son's troubles in a seperate category.

When they come to town....they stay with me.

...just noting my thoughts...I don't have anyone's ear to bend today.

I have 3 people I talk to, one is my mom.

I think I have worn them out!!! <sigh>
