OMG, Betsey - the hoops you've had to jump through... Althuogh your sitch is starting to make a little more sense to me because I know now that the H is not only runnning from your emotions, but from his, and from the grown-up problems that are probably way too much for his tiny little fish gills to swallow. Keep swimming applies to the insurance situation as well - since you won't hear until April (typical Medicaid), I guess stewing doesn't help, altho I know i would still do it. Anyway - cut yourself some slack - you not only have your squirrely H to deal with, but this huge scary monetary sitch with your D. You are an amazing Mommy - remember that you are doing the best you can, which is a damn sight better than a lot of people would do.
One moment of patience may ward off great disaster. One moment of impatience may ruin a whole life.
