ABSTRACT

When I was researching this book, I came across an entry in my journal. It was written a few days after Jonathan was diagnosed. Yet it does not mention the diagnosis and how I might have felt about it. I'm obviously feeling pretty bad and yet seem to have no aware­ ness of why that might be the case. No one at the time had told me how the news might affect me emotionally; I had no framework in which to process what was happening.
