Start of the end..

I'm sorry that it turned out that way brother.

"I am happy that I have some finality and know where I will stand financially, so I can make choices and move forward. It is also with sadness that a family had to be destroyed, and that I no longer want to even stand in the same room with the women I had thought I would spend the rest of my life with." - IWITW

I can certainly empathize with this.

"I want things to work, for d9 and myself, and we will thrive, no matter what comes our way!" - IWITW

Then make it happen brother. You do have the power to do that. Good luck and best wishes.
