You will need the laughter. The roller coaster of an MLC is one of the most vicious you will ever encounter. Be prepared for an extremely bumpy ride. Your only vice is that you realize now it is an MLC. I didn't with my H, not until recently. Knowing does make handling it a little bit easier. I think the thing you really need to remember is that you have to take care of you. Read the Serenity Prayer, and say it a lot, because right now, the only thing you have the power to change is you. Your W is not thinking straight, but you cannot tell her that because she won't hear you. She may even accuse you of controlling her life. Beware the pitfalls.
Im still standin better than I ever did looking like a true survivor feeling like a little kid Im still standin after all this time and Im picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind..
