I see him once a year for about a month in the summer. They live in Florida and I in Pennsylvania. I guess I may just be in love with the thoughts of the old times with her, when I was happy, and that is what I miss. I don't know. Thank you for following my posts, I look forward all the time to comi...

It's just another occasion to practise floating, positive self talk and rest. Thanks again....take care of yourself...

Thank you all for posting this...because of what you wrote here I just had a major breakthrough...even though I understand what it is to 'float' I don't think that I was really getting it. When someone said "Don't fight it" I realized that I have been resisting and fighting against the panic.
