D - yes, you are a prize already. But today, I am absolutely feeling your pain...the longing for my old best friend. Missing just being able to talk to the one person I trusted. Man! I don't know what is hitting me so hard this weekend, but, ouch. I'm feeling the pain of loss.
So, take heart, friend. You are doing everything right. Time will tell, right? In the meantime, you've got a lot of us rooting you on!
