Beth I wish I can tell what is the perfect way for loving detachment. I am having a hard time myself. It is a slow process. Like T said, we all need a break from this sometimes. I think most of us are so consume on how to fix our M, worrying about our WAS. We forgot to take care of ourselves. Go shopping, buy some shoes and purses.....don't women like this stuff? LOL Go reward yourself on the progress that you have made so far. Trust me, you have made lots of good progress. Believe in yourself...I know you can do this.
May be is time to find that Irish Wolfhound....just a thought.

Thanks for making me laugh. I do like shoes and purses and I do believe I have earned some new ones.
Funny your mentioning the Irish Wolfhound, I was just thinking about that the other day. Maybe I will start looking into rescuing one. Maybe he/she can rescue me right back.
NW..for me it would be "go get a massage"..now that beats shoes and a purse for me anyday
{{Beth}} thanks for the compliment my friend! I think that's a neat idea about the dog and rescuing each other My cats are a great source of loviness when they wanna be anyway.

Met with IC this morning. He confirmed H most likely suffering from depression. He also agreed that my decision to tell mutual friend/H's law partner to handle it as she sees fit but giving her some information about resources within and without her firm and then staying out of it is the best approach for me.
He said he thinks I am doing a good job of taking care of myself and not getting pulled down by H while at the same time following my human/gut instinct to ask someone to look out for and try to help him.
All of that made me feel better. He also thought having my nephew meet with H is a good idea. He said the more people other than me who tell H he seems unhappy and unwell, the better.
I have dinner plans tonight with his partner (also my friend) so it is double duty, partly to talk about H but mostly a GAL activity and on a Friday night no less.
I am feeling much better knowing that I will have followed my heart about doing what I can to help a loved one while still taking good care of me and accepting the reality of the situation.
Beth See what I mean on the shoes and purses....!! Wait..do you want my W's? Only 5 easy payments of 49.99. If you call now, I will send out the Magic Bullet blender absolutely free, only pay shipping and handling. She left hundreds may be thousands pair shoes in the house. LOL Or T's suggestion....a long, relax massage that will make you fall asleep. You have done such a wonderful jobs... Keep it up.

Techguy I know...what's up with the tupperware...!!! We have so many of them. They can fill out half the Wal-Mart. There are something that men will never understand, I guess.
