GG--
They say bad things come in threes so maybe you're done for the year. We can hope anyway!
Give yourself some space every day to breathe and center yourself. Hospitals often have roof top gardens which can be nice. Get a good book to keep you company -- no work stuff! I just finished "The Notebook" and it was sweet and light. Or reread an old favorite. I often do this when I'm sitting watch at the hospital. (something I've done far to much of). You don't have to concentrate so hard and it is easy to slip in and out of.
I think phone sessions are a great idea. Mom stuff is the hardest, deepest pain. Could it be that there is some fear for her behind it also? Don't minimize how hard this is.
I'm thinking good thoughts for your sister too. And sending you a large pink golf umbrella to keep this rain from pouring all over you.
Cyber-hugs from me.
Daisy
