Oh Cricket that is so wonderful, so truly wonderful. I have actually been awake all night struggling with how to word a post to Alex and much of what your T said was what I was struggling to express. This is great news Cricket I am so pleased for you. Thank you for posting and sharing this session in so much depth.
It is really hard to care about people who carry so much pain, for whom every minute of every day is such an incredible challenge and amazing achievement. It is hard to make them revisit and re-experience that pain. It's hard to explain how much it scares and hurts you too, how much you fear for and worry about them.
What your T said and wanting to go back and be that person and make things all better is so true too. Admitting to yourself and accepting that you cannot do or be that and that you cannot 'save' the person you care about is hard too. Knowing that you cannot undo what has been done or go through what needs to be gone through for them, though you would if you could is hard.
I'm so glad you and your T were able to have that experience because you will be able to hold onto that during the hard time that will inevitably come.
Thank you again for sharing this, it's a really important post. Bless you Cricket.
