I just got caught up on your sitch. Whoa!!! I cannot even imagine what you are going through, sister! Thank goodness for all of the love and support you have, and the Xanax of course. :-)
And then to have to see him in court after all this time!?! What a darned FOOL this man is and has made of his life. Wow. I actually feel a bit sorry for his pitiful arse too. I doubt he will ever have the companionship, joy and love in his life that you could have provided. His loss!
You are without a doubt a strong, intelligent, and beautiful soul. I so admire you. I have no doubt when your 20-something months of grief are up, more beautiful things will come your way. In fact, I think the worst is over now.
