Sorry it's a tough time for your right now. Of course it feels like a loss, and you probably just need some time to grieve - but it is also a new beginning for you both potentially. Before, you were locked in a deteriorating situation, together in the same house.
Now, you get some more space and breathing room to really carry on the work on you, and be the Dad you want to be, interacting with your W positively. You can regroup, detach more from the situation and move forwards.
Just something to think about - in your earlier posts, you are still focusing on what your W thinks about things, and how it's hard to believe. But, maybe the best thing to do is accept. Right now, that is her perspective (and therefore her current reality). It may change, and you can potentially influence that.
Not used my potato masher yet, but did make a nice frittata for dinner! Toots :-)
