Good for you girl. Believe me, I understand that driving desire to 'come out with it" once and for all...even if it has to be in bits and pieces, as long as it gets done.
I agree 100% that there is NO getting 'around' it...we have to go through it...and that takes time. I think they have to get to a place where they feel safe to be honest. Because they expect with every time we get 'down' that there's a chance that we'll also give up.
Keep up the good work! And for crying out loud get back to this board more often! T2
