Had to say Goodbye. . .

Last night was my last counseling session, and I had to say goodbye to my amazingly supportive counselor. As I have mentioned before the sessions were through a free volunteer service, and were limited to 3 phone sessions. I have an option to go to 6 closed group therapy sessions, but they are almost an hour away from my home, and I am not sure if it's logistically feasible. I am truly greatful for the sessions, especially since I probably could not have afforded them on my own, but I feel like it's almost cruel to stop at only 3; I felt like I was only just beginning to heal.
This has been a truly trying week, and I feel like this was just an unnecessary blow. I would have been 6 months this week, and she listened to my tears with such compassion and understanding. Who will listen to me cry on my due date?
I feel so alone and afraid.

Wish I could be there in person to help you heal. Hugs to you.

Absolutely we\'ll listen. I agree three sessions is nowhere near enough. Maybe there is something else out there that by the time your due date comes around something or someone else will have materialized that will make all the difference. Or maybe you\'ll have new friends you can travel to be with or who can come to you. It\'s a while off chickie and things are changing all the time. Focus on this week and then next and try not to think too far ahead and know that we\'ll help you though it. You are not alone honestly.
