This morning, my STBXW left to do a wedding very early. Not long after, my son came downstairs complaining of a sore throat. I gave him Motrin and made an appt. for the pediatrician. My W arrived home as we were getting ready to leave. I told her immediately what was going on and I was attacked: -why didn"t I call her -I should schedule appts when she can go -then examined him (without a flashlight) to check my veracity
This outburst again was in front of the kids:

After the doc visit, the doc told me she had called asking for the doc to call her with results....as if I would withhold that from her.
Anger is back: -to think that I was making dinner for you -you are taking my kids away from me -you are driving this -what you are doing is"vile and disgusting"
