Excellent news! It is very wise of you to be staying clear of M/R talk. Sounds like you are giving her lots of space and just being her friend and parenting partner. Plus you are keeping your cool and knowing when to back off. Yeah, anxiety is my biggest problem right now too. I've been making the effort of only thinking positive thoughts about W, especially the happy times that we've had together. It helps and when you do interact with her...your friendship efforts won't appear forced and you will be more open to your compassion towards her. Good luck.
