Would you like me to share the photo of Nina on my SM networks? Or are you happy to find her a home in more traditional ways?

Oh bless their little hearts. My, they grow fast, don't they?

Oh I LOVE Aromatics! Noel and his smoked mushrooms - wow. I even made an odyssey to the Hawkes Bay once, especially to hunt him down. I ended up going to the Black Barn Farmers' Market, and finding him there. I won't be going to the Food Show this year, haven't been for a few years, but do enjoy, all who go through the doors.

Up Front: Professional Counsel, in reply to Hilary Stace,
Yes. Anticipatory grief. I had never thought of it that way, but that's what it is. And I am so sorry about your husband, Hilary. I had no idea.

Up Front: Professional Counsel, in reply to Alistair McBride,
Oh Alistair. My heart aches for you, and for your family. This is a very short dance, I fear. Not much time for us all to get our heads around it. May you laugh again, and feel joy. Arohanui.

Up Front: Professional Counsel, in reply to Islander,
Absolutely! Carol's been in my life for 33 years, the problem is she's gone from being perfectly healthy one minute to having abdominal pains and then 5 weeks later, do not pass go, she's terminally ill. Beaches are good, dogs are good, people are good, but the gaping hole that will be left has to be addressed in a timely fashion.

My best friend is dying. We don't know when - it could be a few months, it could be a year, depending on what palliative treatments are offered, or appropriate. What I do know is this: it's only been 3 weeks since the diagnosis, and this could be a short road, or a long road, but either way, at some point along it I could sure do with someone professional to talk to. That won't be covered by insurance, and neither, in this case, should it be. But I'm willing to bet that it will help. Emma is right when she said on the other thread that people don't just seek counselling for depression. It could, in fact, be argued that if we had less of a stigma about talky therapy, and less expensive medical care, that we might be a healthier nation, more willing to examine our deepest fears, and insecurities, and find a salve for them, solutions, that work to make our lives better.
