KAW, I've been following your thread but keeping quiet because I'm at a loss of what to say. You really so seem to be holding together remarkably well despite your current circumstances. I know it must be very painful, but you are there for your daughters in such a supportive way. It's very hard to watch your S do things that hurt your kids. I was a WAS 12 yrs ago and know what hurtful things I did to my family. All I can say when a person is in this mode that they are basically running away from their emotions. They want the "Feel Good" fix they get from the OP. The only comfort I can offer you is that sooner or later she will have to make a choice. I know at that point I had to look at what I would be leaving and what I would be going to. I went back to my family and H. It really is like your someone else. It was not like me AT ALL to do these things. I truly hope your W wakes up and realizes what she's doing. I wish you the very best, Rachael
