Gordie, you have been given a lot of good advice. I think that this recent development is the direction you wanted and you got there through the actions you have been taking. When things START to go the direction you want, that is not the time to change direction. You need to stay the course because it seems to be taking things the right way.

That fear is natural and healthy given the circumstances, and so is recognizing it and pressing forward. I think you DO know what you need to do, but it is just hard because you are hearing SOME of what you wanted to hear and its been a while since that has happened. She isn't there yet, but this is a step in the direction you want. If you change now she will most likely step back.

Hang in there...you're doing fine!!
