I hear you v1olin. Hope is a dangerous thing. Stay detaching and keep moving forward with your life. I was so struck by the similarity though.
From what I've seen, the WAW brain is so self centered that if they don't want to do something, no amount of guilt or perceived obligation is going to make them. Think about what she already did. She completely walked away from your M, and made you split time with your children. That's big time stuff. Why would she feel so compelled to reciprocate this little illness thing?
