Your story sounds very familiar to me and my situation, so I feel for you. Whether there is hope or not is really impossible to say at this point. We just don't know what is going on with them, how long it will take for them to see the light, etc. What we do know is what makes us happy, given the circumstances. We can only look at ourselves right now. Drop the rope; it's hard, I know, but you will feel better when you stop asking "why" or "when." Take care.
