Alison, maybe you were fighting for something that didn't really exist any longer.an ideal' a possession, a dream.
but you are real, your family is real. Fight for YOU for THEM. They need you.

Believe me/us it takes far more courage to move on than to hang on to something that is long gone. Just get the financial side sorted through your solicitor. Have no contact with him over this -its less painful and quicker. Don't prolong the hurt by seeing him.

One day you will wonder why you thought you had no life without him.
