Dear Cali Chica:

I hope the heat wave passes soon, I am wearing a light sweater as I type this.

You wrote that your mother is like many patients you see daily who “expect someone else to entirely cure them without having any effort exerted on their end.. wanting to be fixed by an outside person.. handing over their entire self to someone else saying- fix me, and if you can’t I will be very angry with you”-

so what you are saying is that your mother expected you to entirely cure her, wanted to be fixed by you, and handed over her entire self to you saying- fix me?

– I know you will be back in the morning, and so will I.
