I should be the one apologizing too. I hardly put any comments on other people's threads since I really don't know what to say. Everyone here seems to have their dbing efforts in so much better control and I don't have many useful ideas yet!
I wanted to post to your sitch last week, I think you did a wonderful job of being a bit distant w/h. I just didn't know how to say what was on my mind.
IMHO, maybe some of the tears and shakiness comes from not having any control over the sitch of his phone call. It's hard to say 'no' when they seem to have all the right reasons; but it wasn't fair of him to ask you to change your plans on such short notice.
Take good care of yourself and I am thinking of you even if I don't have much to say. T
