LIS, Thanks for geting in touch - it means a lot to know you're there.
I'm getting on with life, busy at work and with the kids. Exhausted mostly, but having a lot of great times with them.
Stbx has gone quiet after the manic calling and emailing of the last 2 weeks.
It's bliss not to have to even consider him. It's really only financial issues that I have to worry about in respect of him now. Once we go to court on those, I'm expecting he'll go OTT again.
So tired of it all, now.
Apparently FIL is receiving chemo and radio therapy prior to surgery to remove his cancer, but neither stbx nor MIL/FIL will talk to me about it.
I struggle with my new role as outsider when someone I thought was part of my family is seriously ill.. but I have to realise it is their choice, not mine. Makes it hard, though, to help the kids through this. They are worried about their grandpa, but I can't offer any info or advice.
Makes me mad that stbx's parents can't see how things affect their grandkids, but then again... that's MY problem.
