Am I ready for this?

Mtnman, remember that asking for a D is a cry for "space". A loud and hurtful cry, yes.

I would recommend that call to Chuck. You need to stay grounded. I was thinking about you and your sitch this morning at 3 am when I could not sleep. When I contacted Chuck I always had a list of questions to ask. Then I took notes continually throughout the call. Then I retyped those notes into my DB files. I would refer to them often. Even months later. Get the most from your money.

Meeting with an attorney will arm you with knowledge. And knowledge is power. It doesn't mean the end, as you know from my sitch. But it is a scary and hurtful place to be.

You have your faith, your confidence as a father, your love in your heart for your W, helpful family only 30 miles away, and your wonderful boys. Take heart and be strong. You will make it through this.
