frank...I have to agree with everyone above. One of the occupational hazards of being a surgeon is being dragged away from your family at odd hours, during family affairs, etc....
Frank....your one hazard is that you are in front of that computer too long, glued in that house.
You need to get out.
Not only that, your W chose to live in a different place with another man. I think all the coffee making, cleaning and visitation can be done AT HER HOME. I can't and won't tell you to file frank, but I can tell you that, IMO, enough is enough and she needs to be 'boundarized'. I can't make my final detachment, if you will, because the courts haven't decided who goes. But...your W is out.
Aside from being the mother of your kids: -how does she enrich your life? -how do YOU enrich YOURS? -what negative effects does she have on your life? -what positive effects does she have?
Answers: 1) She doesn't 2) ? 3) Lots 4) None
Cut her adrift and let her row frank. Start tossing coals into the boilers and get your ship moving again. Either she's drowning you OR....you're treading water too long and going under. Save yourself.
