Hey FLTC

I’m glad you are doing OK in Iraq. I have a sister that’s in Baghdad. She’s a civilian, there for the money. She has been there for 3 months and has been through some mortar attacks. She has thrown herself into her work there to take her mind off the living conditions.

I hope the Utah school is helping your daughter; I had a delinquent stage in my teens. I think a change of scenery would have got me through it quicker. I certainly do not think it will hurt her.

I’m sorry that there is no indication of your wife wanting to reconcile.

My wife and I are still back together. It has been over 4 months now since we reconciled. I still does not feel quite right to me. My wife has never really apologized for her part in our difficulties. I know from reading here not to expect one, but I still think about it. Her drinking is substantially less than what it was, but she continues to take prescription meds and I fear she is addicted to them. So life is not perfect, but overall it has been better than 6 months ago.

I want to thank you FLTC for all the advice you gave me during my difficult times. I have seen a psychologist for several months now and I don’t think I have gotten anywhere near the good advice and comforting words that I received from you and others here. So again thank you very much.

I wish you all the best.

Mark
