I remember how much of a mess I was right before my H left, and even worse when it finally happened. I lost something that I so deeply cherished, and the pain of losing it felt horribly unbearable at times.

You will grieve for some time, and that's ok. It's perfectly normal. It's part of the healing process. Give yourself time, and you will eventually begin to heal and feel better. You will be alright.

Hope you have a wonderful time at rehearsal and everything goes well with C. (((((Karen)))))
