Not read through everything in detail. The attny comment I still think is their way of reminding us where they are at. I remember W used to throw in the D word every-time we were getting along and it always shocked me.
I have always made a point of sending W a mothers day card and a small something and she always does the same for me. For me you did the right thing....and good on you for holding off trying to keep the conversation going. I know how hard it can be to hold off.
You sound like you are building up quite a support network which is good. TBH its probably something I need to make more of an effort on!
...and don't worry about the FB thing. I bet we have all done similar!
