Hello @paulalina

I really appreciated your post. Especially the phrase, "I am leaning into anger, gently, trying to "get" that feeling without being terrified." That is so great!

Leaning into a feeling displays gentleness with yourself and you need that if your childhood was less than gentle.

I agree that it is "bittersweet" to parent oneself at an older age, but I agree that it is a wonderful experience at any age.

I'll look forward to hearing from you again. Will you continue to share some of these lovely ideas?

Yes, Teresa, I will. Thank you for your kind comment. I have been most fortunate to have wonderful doctors ever since I came to Mayo in Rochester and saw Dr. Farwa Ali, she is a wonderful doctor and a phenomenal human being. I will have to write her a letter one day when my tremors are low. Her care and her kindness were what I carried with me from Rochester.
