i always thought it was so special that my hubby was getting baby fever... we talked about names, how we wanted to raise them, registering for baby gifts, the baby's baptism, every day and every night parenting activities... and now... none of it will exist...
It really hurts, the death of that future and those dreams.. hopefully with time, new dreams emerge for all of us.

Quite.

I am tempted to accept the offer of help...but I am wary. In reality I don't need him. I want my H, not a "gofer". And I'm not inclined to do something because it might help HIM. I need to help ME.I think this is where I need to take a hard stance, otherwise I could let myself in for drama and backsliding.
I wish my H was reading DB too. At last check he was reading Jung! and some other philosophical tracts.
It worried me that the friend who he has been staying with since the bomb is now taking a "these things just happen" stance - he tried to get my WH to reconcile with me, but has now given up, I reckon. Fair enough. What do you know about the people surrounding your husband right now?
