My cherished soul friend, first things first, I’ve been missing our thoughtful and heartwarming interactions! I’ve been taking some time off for a while (guess a whole month?). I’m coming back very soon, hopefully, but won’t be as active as before given that I’m volunteering in Brazil till end of July!

This being said, I am so glad you had the privilege to live close to your delightful grandma and get access to her nurturing and healthy presence in your life!

When it comes to your Nanny, I might be wrong about my impression, but it seems to me that I’m witnessing some red flags of NPD in her and unaware empathy & codependency in your lovely grandfather?
