W indicated that now she feels ok to talk to me about things and feels like I can listen to her and not offer solution or judgement.
Big step forward. Don't push.

She did mention that she's a little afraid of Retro, that all that emotion may overwhelm her. I told her she'll have to deal with it sometimes and it's part of the process of letting things go.
IMHO that was a very good response. I wish I was quick enough on my feet to come up with validating non-judgemental responses like that. (normally my smart-&##-edness jumps out.)
I bet she IS afraid. Guilt s&$#s.
I'm glad she's still willing to go. Even if things go really south, I can't imagine that it won't be beneficial for communicating as far as the kids go.
Stay Strong.
