I do have a lawyer, i have protected all my rights even with my step children. My wife had sole custody of them and she signed that to me. It is all legal and with the courts.
My real estate agent has come out to the house and given me a list of items to fix, which i have completed and the house will be on the market this week.
I will say something that i have been avoiding for a few months on here. I dont know why i didnt add it to my story, it might have been a little easier for some of you to understand my motives and why i have done what i did.
about 3 and 1/2 months ago, i was diagnosed with stomach cancer. I have just finished my first round of treatment. I have kept this to myself only telling my boss at work and a couple of really close friends. I did not tell my wife. I have kept that from her and tried to do everything possible so she would come home for our kids and our family. This was done cause i am afraid that if i dont make it through this, the kids will have lost both parents.
my son hates his mother, my daughter doesnt want to talk to her mother, my middle 2 boys just dont want to see her. How does life go to sh#$ like this so quickly? She was such a good mom, the kids were always put first. Now its the complete opposit.
Dont know if that helps people understand my situation, and the motives for my actions.
As for selling the house and moving on with life. Her brother is giving me every dime he has monthly, raising my 4 kids and mainting a large house and property pretty much by himself. I dont know too many 20 year olds who would do that. He has been a blessing, letting me rest and doing the things i can do. Hell he even cleans up my puke. Its not fair to him.
Thanks for letting me get that out there, in writing it really sinks the reality in.
