Dear Karen,

I can’t believe that you survived so much and like helping people. Why do you think you do? Has Baer analyzed you lately? I’m sure if he supports you he would take special precautions to assure your mind set as you delve into yous past over again. Do answering questions keep you stuck in the past?

Thank you for sharing. I finished reading your book at two this morning. I kept waking thinking about you and thought I’d right on your blog. I hope you are safe and living in peace. I pray for you. I am happy you survived.

Dear Osbourne,

Would it help if I didn’t help anyone? I help others because I believe that if we each help each other, we can change the world, one act of kindness at a time.

Dr. Baer has no need to analyze me anymore.  Dr. Baer is no longer my therapist.  We are colleagues and friends that work together sharing my story.

Answering questions doesn’t leave me stuck in the past, but it does take me on a visit back to the past, a place in which I’ve once lived and no longer want to be.  I suffer no ill effects from answering questions.  As a matter of fact, it helps me put my past into perspective, despite the temporary triggers that may cause me a moment of sadness when I realize what I’ve overcome.

Thank you for your compliments and especially your prayers.

Karen
