Hey DC, glad you did so well in your first try at a triathlon. And it is so cute that your kids think the Olympics await.
It's good that you apologized to your W. I am sure that was hard for you.
My S didn't want to talk about it, either, but would sometimes out of the blue ask questions. I would answer the best I could, and let him know I was always there any time to talk, when he wanted.
At the end of the day, when you are thinking about how much you love your W, steel your resolve to keep the changes going, and to be the best you can be in all aspects of your life. It won't go unnoticed.
I agree with what they say, never give up hope even if it hurts like heck, it will make you a stronger person. I have faith in you that you can do it. It may take a long time, but you have lots of friends here to help with any issues. Remember you are not alone.
