BT - thank you. I'm such an over-achiever. I really want to get this right, and it frustrated me that so little of it is within my control. LOL I want to get an "A", and feel like I'm at a solid "D" - and for someone like me...ouch!
Marathon. Slow down, pace yourself, conserve energy, keep it steady.
M - my dream is to leave the door cracked just enough, so that when H remembers who he is, he'll know he can come home. There can be no R right now. He's not himself, and I have too much healing to do. But one day? I'd like to be strong enough - because if he does wake up, he's going to need me to be. His actions now are the polar opposite of who he used to be. He's going to be carrying loads of regret and shame.
So, how to leave an open door? Right now, I'm slamming it in his face.
