I'm sorry you are getting upset...and then I'm not, ya know? You are digging in here, S. But you can do this. No one can hurt you unless you allow them to.

So, when you are ready, if you are ready...we can talk this out or not...your choice. I will understand and support whatever you choose.

In the meantime I wanted to share another fear of mine. Fear of the loss of me. Yea, that was a big one. That one came true. It was as bad as I imagined, too. But I found me, thank God, and I wont ever lose me again.

I wanted to tell you how special I think you are, S, and how brave and funny and interesting you are, too.

This is a journey you were meant to go on. I know it deep in my soul. It's gonna be quite the ride, but, I am excited for you.
