Dear Helen,
I read your column every week faithfully. I was
wondering if you see me having surgery again? Last time I wrote you,
you were right on the money! Do you see me keeping my job? Thank you.
Signed, Just Want To Know.
I'm sure by now, all that was meant to happen to you has. Your layout
does show more surgery. If you have already had the surgery in
question, then there is still another to follow. As far as your job
goes, you will keep it for the time being. Just take care of your
health. That is all that matters right now. Let everything else take
care of it's self.
Dear Helen,
Love your column. I have written before. Quite a few
times, but my last letter must have gotten lost. I was concerned about
my son's well being and was wondering is everything going to be okay
for him in the new year? Is he going to get closure in all the turmoil
he has been going through for the past year? Thank you and take care.
Signed, Concerned.
Your son has a gentle and fragile heart. I'm sure people would be
surprised at just how sensitive he truly can be with disappointments
and heartache. We all grieve differently. There is no right or wrong
way and no time limit. This is going to take your son a long time to
get over. The best thing he can do for himself is to get grief
counselling. Grief counselling is not just for people who are dealing
with death. It's for anyone, dealing with loss, and your son is dealing
(in his own way )
with loss. You should encourage him to get this help for his healing
process. It would do him the world of good and help speed up his
situation. If he doesn't get help, it's going to take about another
year before you see him back to his old self.
