Just to comment on your above posts, you are an awesome mom! Although staying home with your sick child and taking care of him seems obvious, it's not necessarily to other parents. I know my own SIL is oblivious to that thing called "parenting" and sacrifice and I'm sure you've seen that tons with students at your own school.
I'm sorry you are feeling down but it is completely understandable. I remember this time so well for you last year. What a huge blow! The only thing that can really give you solace now looking back is the fact that, like you said, you have become a stronger and better person from it all.
I've been thinking about life past H too in regards to finding someone else. I know you had to dig in deep to see if you were ok with being single the rest of your life and that's a question that i've had to ask too. I have noticed as well that it seems all the "good guys" are either married or in a serious R. It's a little discouraging, but on the otherhand, I keep reminding myself that there are others out there like us - good people who found ourselves in bad R's or just never found the right one to begin with. Although your schedule is not exactly easy, the "right guy" will be willing to work with that too - whether it's lunch dates to begin with and if it becomes more serious and you are ready to introduce him to S, outings all together. I know it's hard to think about that now, but don't completely write another man in your future off. Sometimes I think you can't overpush it - sometimes it just happens!
