My religious views would have me phrase your question in a different manner, but the core issue would still be the same. I think the answer is no, there cannot be real change until the WAS faces what they did at an emotional level, and empathize how it affected the LBS.

However, it should not be an expectation of ours, nor should we try to influence an apology, or wait for one. I'd like to think that if our spouses continue on the path towards health, then at some point the stars will align, and they will be able to honestly look at what they did, and connect to the pain that they created for others.
