Would you want one in the first place? I have been in an on again off again discussion with my T about having a picture of him. He is kind of reluctant but in his usual grace has not said no or yes to it, he is kind of thinking on it still. I guess I think of it as being a sort of "comfort item". A reminder that some one cares and is there for you. I have this object consistency problem, it is like the minute I walk out of the office, I can't be certain what he said, and what he didn't say. The same is true for other friends. (Uh, friend.) I always want pictures of everyone who I care about. It isn't a romantic thing, it is more of a reminder that person cares about me.
I actually had him agree to take a picture with me on the final day of this treatment I was in with him, but he had to fly out on business so he wasn't there. Talk about a major shot to the heart. I would feel too stupid just going in to his office and taking a picture of him, but if he said it was okay I could probably "manage"..haha...
Those who do have a picture, how did you get it and why do you have it? Why is it important to you?
