Thank you Gardener for your reply and for putting things into perspective for me. I should be happy with what my W has to offer at this time. There have been obvious improvements in our situation since Retrouvaille...not as much as I would like after six months of DBing, but nonetheless definite improvement. I know that this is not going to be on my timeline, but it frustrates the heck out me. My needs haven't been met years (and no I'm not whining...it's just fact). There are definitely times when I'm ready to be the WAS...and then there are times when I desperately want my W back in my arms.

Kind Regards,
LFH
