Oh Raisin,
My therapist was out for ~3 months on maternity leave. I totally feel for you! After I found out I feel like everything shifted. My feelings around it totally took over - just when I was just starting to really get attached. When she returned I just thought I would never make it back to my issues. (Although of course her being out/pregnant/having a baby did trigger real issues of course.) Anyway, somehow we reconnected and I continued my attachment. But that whole thing was SO HARD! I understand your conflicting feelings about such a happy thing for her - especially if you feel like you love her. But it is also abandoning in a way (not on purpose obviously). I think it made my connection to my T even stronger in the end but I dread her having a second which I often imagine is coming... sounds like yours already had one? Just hang in there with it. I hear your pain.
