Email to Nathan from Saul

Nathan,
I'm so sorry I didn't get this earlier. I was out of town on business and didn't think to check that the filter was set up to allow me to access your emails from elsewhere. I had to confess I was afraid you'd decided against staying in touch, when I didn't hear from you. I'm very glad to know I was wrong.
You certainly don't need to explain yourself. I know this will take time, and I don't want to rush you. I don't want you to rush yourself, either; the most important thing here is for you to recover from whatever was done to you, and while I may not be your therapist, I suspect he's counseling you to take things slowly as well?
If you'd like some more details about our life in Alaska, just ask. It would make me very happy to think that I could help you bridge those gaps in your memory.
Saul
PS: If it's not too presumptuous, I was wondering... why 'Dayspring'?

Date: 2005-06-13 04:39 pm (UTC)I'm... getting a whole lot of 'take it slowly' from a number of different directions, actually. I guess that's best? I just... I'm frustrated, I guess. I don't like the idea that I'm not in control of what's going on inside my own head, after everything that's happened.
Details. I don't know... let me look at what I've written down? Standing offer, right?
Nathan
PS: That's... what I actually thought our last name was. I really don't know why, given that it's obviously not...

Date: 2005-06-13 04:53 pm (UTC)It's quite all right. We've figured out what the problem is, so it won't happen again. Although - irrational thing against phones? I'm not sure I understand.
I can only imagine how important control is to you, now. Though even those of us who haven't been through an ordeal like yours can't expect to be in full control, all the time. The human mind is a complicated thing, Nathan, especially when it's been injured. You shouldn't hold yourself to a standard that's only going to cause you more stress while you're recovering.
It's a standing offer, of course. Are you certain I can't talk you into a phone call? It might be far easier to share what you do remember, that way.
Saul
PS: How very odd.

PS: And this whole situation isn't?
