It certainly sounds like you have dropped the rope Punkt. That is good for you and her.

I can understand that watching your wife spiral downward like this for so long has tortured you but don't you think it has made you grow as well? Maybe this is God's plan for your life. You needed to grow and your W's crisis was the catalyst for that. As you said, you can't really help her through this, she has to help herself. Hopefully she will before her life gets totally out of control.

You hug those kids and keep being the fantastic dad you are! I know you worry about how this will all affect them but since you aren't radiating pain anymore they will not feel the tension from you anymore. That is a plus for them. I realized that my pain and tension was making my son tense and as soon as I found a way to control that within my self he relaxed too.

TAKE CARE OF YOU PUNKT!

I'll continue to pray for all of you.
