[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 687704, member: 17461"] Maybe, he needs to hear something like: This is true. But I know you can do this. It will be okay. I am proud of you. And then, add "I love you." I think that might be what he needed to hear. They share their innermost thinking with us, because I think they don't know how frightening it is for us to hear it. But it is frightening to hear it. That is why it helped me to write down what I needed to be saying. Sometimes, especially at first, it was really hard to say words that sounded so cold and artificial. I did it anyway though, and I think it was the right thing to have done. There is a link at the bottom of my posts that gives us phrases to use, RN. It helped me to write them down and keep them by the phone. Cedar [/QUOTE]
