Tiff, I'm sorry you're dealing with this. I didn't realise that Joey would be gone for a whole year.

You're not being selfish; he's the love of your life, no wonder you're feeling down. Don't withhold your feelings from Joey, he's no doubt feeling the same as you and you can help each other work through the loneliness, fear and depression that you'll both be going through.

Thanks for coming back to PT. Hopefully we can all be there for you
