Hi Choc,

My heart sunk deeply when I came upon this new thread today and read what has been happening.

I can't imagine how hard it must be to experiece this so soon after your W had given you reasons for hopeful improvements. Your strength and resolve in response to the latest episodes are very admirable, and you continue to inspire me.

The psychic DJs are at it again on my radio stations. When I awoke to the radio the day before yesterday, the "Words For The Wise" intellectual vocabulary feature spotlighted the word: "Rollercoaster" and the commentator included the reference to situations of strong emotional shifts. The very next song they played was a song I had never heard before by The Byrds:

Everybody's Been Burned

Everybody's been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
Anyone in this place
Can tell you to your face
Why you shouldn't try to love someone

Everybody knows it never works
Everybody knows and me
I know that door that shuts
Just before you get to the dream
You see...

I know all too well
How to turn, how to run
How to hide behind
A bitter wall of blue
But you die inside
If you choose to hide
So I guess instead, I'll love you


Like Chrome said above, I don't prescribe these lyrics to your sitch, but I can say that when I see my W, I do not recognize the person she is now, and there is certainly a blinding fog that has set in over and around her. As I detach a little more each week, I find myself in a more clear atmosphere, where it is easier to breathe, and I am glad that we are separated for now, for I need the peace I can create for myself.

I pray that you will continue to find all the strength and emotional fortitude for yourself, your children and for facing the challenges in the days ahead.

All the best,

LG
