I think that therapy is a good source for guidance in a difficult situation. Sometimes it is difficult to separate emotion from the equation. Confusion can set in when too much is going on and decisions need to be made. i've received professional advice this week and feel that I have all angles covered, psychological/emotional, legal, medical and finally, I've shared the situation with family and friends and am no longer flying solo on this. I appreciate all of your advice and support here on the mayo blog because it is good to know so many people have concern for others, even strangers that turn to the internet for help.
