Oh - that must really feel bad. So many things have changed in your life in the recent past isn't it.
I really admire you for coping up so well with so many changes. I wouldn't have been able to perhaps, if I were you.
I am sorry about the fact that you may not be able to drive to see your T. I know it must feel really very bad. But things happen for a reason. Maybe your time with your T ought to end (for some higher purpose which I don't know), and maybe it is what God wills for you at this time. And for all you know, you might really end up changing for a better Dinah with the new life.
I know it happened to me. I am sure it will happen to you also if you persevere.

Which seems like a good time to ask for prayers, good wishes, good vibrations, or whatever anyone might be able to offer for the next few months.

He snorted with laughter, and said that although I may not be able to engage in the physical manifestations of my distress, I could talk to him about it with words. Of course, I just couldn't find the words to express my distress. :(((((
