Wow Lou! I'm glad so many peeps chimed in on your thread to offer support. What you feel is completely understandable at this juncture. I think it's great that you are enjoying walks on the beach (it's a good exfoliator for the feet too:) as I find it a soothing way to process my thoughts.

Try to enjoy your trip. It sounds like you have many good ideas about what you want your life to look like. The vets are right-there is a lot of living for you to do.

In regards to your h, AJ is spot on. It does take a while to truly realize their behaviors aren't normal because, well, it just seems so unbelievable when you witness it. And your MIL....they frequently say "z is so happy now"-whatever that means. Job is right that you need to be kind to yourself. No one gets a medal for not expressing their feelings. If you need to cry, cry. Just try to laugh. It really is good medicine.

Enjoy this time:-)
