She may be trying, but I get the impression you do not let her heal. You pursue her constantly, take her temperature, do not give her space, that stops her right in her tracks. Think of the emotional wound as a physical wound on your arm or leg. If you keep scratching it, it breaks open and the healing process starts fresh. If you keep scratching open her emotional wounds, the same thing is happening there. That is probably why she cannot heal.
That's a very powerful analogy/metaphor. I'm really going to have to remember that one. I see what the power of space is in a time like this....
