Lucky: Thanks for those words. I went back through some old journals -- always start them, never carry them through -- and found myself reflecting on the fear I felt in counseling. At root I was always afraid to find out she didn't really love me. Oookay -- that fear seems pointless now.
Another Nightmare: I need some kind of glossary for all those abbreviations! On the ADHD I was ALWAYS a skeptic. "Oh, it's just Big Pharma! Oh, it's just an excuse!" But watching the lad I've witnessed it. And as I think back on my father, I suspect he probably was attention-deficit as well -- his old college report cards certainly suggest it.
As to the GAL and the this and the that. Where can I get up to speed on that lingo? Totally mystified. Or, as I like to put it, ??????
