GM, Do you what you need to do in order to survive. Moving forward will require you to put on your big girl panties and your business suit. Leave the emotions at the front door because this man is a gambler and will try to out wit you in this game of cards. Whatever you do, do not tell him what you are planning to do...just do it and allow the lawyer do his job.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
