Coly, Your feelings are very normal. We read the posts of others and it's normal to compare the various situations to your own...however, each situation is different and what happens in one poster's case may not happen in another. No one knows how each situation will play out and the outcome is unknown to us until something happens. So, take a deep breath and continue to have faith in you, your h, the man upstairs and the process.
Your dad sounds like is a very good at remodeling and fixing things. Ask him questions and ask him to show you how to fix things. This will help you if you ever have that particular problem again.
I'm glad you and your daughter are going on holiday soon. You both need a break from the mlc madness.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
