Such an awesome experience for you. Thank you for grappling with all this. so often we mentally go to "how do I fix this" rather than how can I stay in the moment with this person. There is a movie, The Soloist, with Robert Downy, Jr. and Jamie Foxx, that I love because Downy's character goes through the progression of trying to "fix" Foxx's character, and in the end, realizes that that he just needs to be a friend...

So good, Ann, and so true. Profound insight on your part. I know many who just long to eat and enjoy their food with company without having to give answers right away. Thanks for sharing.
