Thom, thanks so much for lending a listening ear, offering advice, showing your kindness and giving re-assurance that when life gets tough, as often it does, there are ways to cope and get through it and that your door will always be open in the future should I ever need your help again. You made it feel ok in some way to show my feelings, to laugh and to cry. Your words of me needing to be kinder to myself will stay with me forever.
