Thanks Valeska. I find myself sitting on my hands a lot because I just miss the interaction with her, but I am for sure in the midst of the LRT so I am doing my best to gut it out.
I am lucky enough to have friends around that are supportive, coworkers too. I am fortunate to have a friend that has been through this, too - almost to the letter. We talk almost daily about my situation, though he is probably 20 years my senior. His situation resolved, but it took him a year and a lot of patience. He encourages me to just give her time and space and not to cling or over communicate. Eventually, they started bonding over their two boys and things went from there.
I can only hope for the same, but right now life without my wife and son feels a lot like my oxygen supply has been cut off.
