Dear Friends,
I am having a lot of feelings well up lately. It has been a bit tough. But also good to process them. Maybe it is allergies getting me down. Or the anniversary of my dad’s last days. Or my aunt in palliative care far away. Or who knows.
But there are moments of joy. For example, yesterday I joined Tara in her spelling sessions with clients about an hour away. I asked if I could join because I was feeling lonely and I wanted to see other spellers in person. The client families were so welcoming!
I am so happy to share that I made two new friends around my age. We had a great time spelling together. They are so kind and funny! They are so feeling the elation of being newly fluent. It was awesome to hang out. I am so proud of them for all their hard work. We are just beginning our great friendships.
We also met up with another client who I am already friends with. He was so happy to hang out too!
This helped my heart so much. I also love long drives with Tara, and I also loved watching her work with her clients. She is a special practitioner. I am proud of her.
I still feel a bit overloaded with emotions, but I am learning to be resilient. And time with friends helped!
Your Friend,
Danny
