Dear Dr. Haiman.
I wish to take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks and appreciation
for your patience and willingness to acceptance monthly payments. I truly
had no other way to repay you.
I am still not divorced (I think this is the longest divorce in history!)
and the legal fees have been overwhelming. My husband is fighting me on every
issue regarding the boys. But there is good news too. _______ is now 12 years
old and is reading on grade level. He made another 3 year growth in reading
last year and another 1 year growth during this last summer. He simply needed
the time to develop as well as to deal with all the trauma from the divorce.
Your testimony positively affected his life (as it did all of ours) by giving
him the chance to move forward in his own way in his own time. It has been
a challenge for him, but he has prevailed and become much stronger for it.
Next year he will most likely attend the local junior high school for a couple
of periods and homeschool with me for the rest, as his older brother is doing
now.
______, my other son, is now 14 years old and bas attended 2 periods a day
at the local junior high school and is a straight A student. He still prefers
and misses, as do I, homeschooling the way we used to do it before I began
fulltime employment. That first year was an adjustment for us all, but we
are coping well under the circumstances and moving on.
Enclosed is a check for _______, which should pay off the balance of what
I owe you. Anyway, I trust all is well with you. Again, thank you.

Dear Peter,
What a bittersweet goodbye. Part of me wanted to run back inside on Saturday
and get another hug from you. Yet, as I walked outside a mockingbird was singing
from the top of a tall pine tree outside your office. As I listened I felt
as if it was Spring, a new beginning. A rush of hope and excitement. Thank
you for pointing me in a new direction and for staying with me when things
were so dark. Let’s stay in touch. I’ll miss you, but I will be
thinking of you.
Love,

Dear Dr. Haiman,
I feel great. Your support have given me a lot of strength to deal with life
in a way that I wasn’t able to before therapy. I am very happy about
what I am doing for my family and myself. Thanks for being there.
Sincerely,
Dear Peter,
We want to thank you for your help and encouragement concerning our daughter.
Your follow-ups are a blessing!
I enjoy you as a professional and as a friend.
Thought you might like this piece that was in the paper.
Talk to you soon.
