Thank you so much, Tori. I love that you posted back so quickly. I feel warmed and encouraged by your words.

It's actually really helpful that you're carrying on updating your sitch. It makes it so clear that life doesn't end with a D.

I wonder whether part of my thinking about asking H to leave is to jolt him into realising what he has to lose. Then again, he may not be jolt-able. It's impossible to know whether I'm better off standing or asking him to leave. As you say, the answers will come in time.

Thank you again for your words, lovely Tori.
