Family Matters

That took a tad longer then I expected. Then again I had 2 phone calls instead of one. Dr. M did call me, and had some very... important news to tell me. More on that later. Onto the first call.

So the first phone call was from Rebecca, my friend... or girl-friend... I don't know, I guess I can say we're in a relationship... I find it funny how I haven't mentioned her here before though. She's a very important part of my life and of this whole memory loss, considering that most of what I do remember in that 15 year blank involves her in some way or another. She's been a very integral part of Dr. M's... therapy... I guess you can call it... He believes that since I seem to have a significantly clear memory about her, that maybe she can help me recall the blocked out memories. There's one fault about that plan though, that is that as far as we both remember, she never lived in Illinois, and we met while I was visiting a friend in college out here in California. And at no point does she recall me saying anything about my family or what could have happened to them and I don't remember telling her. Though Dr. M is still adamant about me bringing her to most of my sessions, which I can say I like, I feel more comfortable when she's in the sessions with me. Like i have someone there i know will support me if I need it. Even though Dr. M and I have grown a friendship, it just isn't the same. Enough on that front, I'll get back to that on a later date.

The second phone call was, obviously, Dr. M. I'm absolutely giddy with excitement about what he found, though I'm not sure how healthy that is, so I'll try to tone it back. He found some very pertinent information regarding the house and my past. He found the names of the people that lived in the house I was talking about in the last post. There were 4 names:

 Robert G. Hall, Age 11, That's me.
 Adam R. Hall, my Dad I'm guessing, Age 43.
 Christine W. Hall, my Mom, Age 40.
 And Paige A. Hall, Age 6.

I mean I can't begin to believe what this could mean for this whole... memory thing. I mean maybe he could end up finding this family. My.... my family... now i know that that could be a very good coincidence, but... when I heard those names, they seemed so... familiar... like I've known the names for a very long time... but I couldn't put my finger on it. That... for me, confirmed it. Dr. M was ecstatic that he finally found a solid lead, and told me that he would most likely have more information on my family after my next session, which is Monday. I think that this has been enough excitement for one night... I'll probably be back after Christmas.
