Dear Annie,
Anger is a normal reaction as we walk through grief. Do not feel guilty for this emotion. A dear friend once told me that she would grieve in increments of time, like setting her timer for 15 minutes and then going into her bedroom and doing her reactive responses to the emotions as much as she needed. After 15 minutes she would get up and pull weed - while the tears flowed freely. I wonder if carrying the anger inside us without releasing it is the part that diminishes our immune response.
Have courage my friend, live in time increments, and honor your strength. Grete
I actually did change dermatologist when he let two places become so advanced that the scars are very noticeable. Interesting that the new one was just doing biopsies all over the place. Just seemed odd. To me they did not look like much at all. Grrr. What to do. Seems like this is an easy way for this specialty to make easy income. I hope to feel that way but... Maybe I'll try another one before long.
