The way you and Nat phrase things sometimes, it’s like you think I’m a child who either doesn’t know how to live or who hasn’t thought about life intelligently. Maybe you think you are being kind and helpful to me but I know how this goes. Very few people have the patience to continue talking to an adult they think is a child. And answer my questions.
Obviously we can have conversations. And I intend to modify my schedule to provide you with the most time alone in the house that I can manage.
It’s just not conducive to anything if you say to me, “Think about that for a moment” as you “probe.” That’s like smacking my NUMB numb hand with a ruler.

[…] I want to stay, […] but I am taking the floor. Is your hand still completely numb or is some feeling returning?
DM, 11/19
No, I will take the floor[…] I just hit my hand against the floor and my thumb somewhat hurts. That’s good, right?DM, 11/19
That is good. But please be careful with your hand while it is without feeling. I am going to stop by the infirmary for a few things.
DM, 11/19
Okay. […] My pointer and my middle finger are back now too.
DM, 11/19
That is very good. Try to gently stretch your shoulder joint the way you do for me.

And of course I am not satisfied. Although I am trying to be kinder, more optimistic, grateful. It is just not always easy thing to do.
