By sharing these memories here, others too can appreciate your recollections of her and the general body of information about her is enriched. You conclude that you could <em>"write a lot more about my indelible personal experiences involving Dorothy"</em>, and I for one would welcome your doing so as the inspiration strikes you at some future time. Thanks for sharing this much with us. And, let me add, if you should ever hit a dry spell in conceiving of material for your blog, I would suggest that you have given a cryptic tease about a potentially fascinating story of a <em>personal</em> nature in discussing Dorothy's generous gift to you when you said <em>"beginning one of the most traumatic experiences of my life, not because of psychoanalysis per se, but because the coincidence of outrageous fortune had landed me on the couch of an analyst my worst enemy might have selected for me"</em>. Despite the number of fascinating people you have known about whom you still might write, I would remind you that you yourself are one of them that I suspect many of us would find interesting.
