I fear that you are right. He has not contacted me to further discuss wrapping things up and we are marching toward the court hearing that he necessitated by missing his filing. I haven't heard from him and I have not heard from his lawyer. (nor have I heard from my own) I've been watching the docket, and nothing has been filed. I can't imagine him showing up to face the judge when he couldn't give his lawyer an instruction to fill out a simple form. My guess is that he will eat the fine and hope that the court dismisses the case.
He has stopped contacting the children. Not sure what is going on. I don't have any reason to believe there is anything wrong with him. Were there, I imagine someone would tell me. I track the number of days he contacts the kids. The numbers for November and December were way, way down. But he and I had significantly more interaction than in the 1.5 years prior to that. Not sure why communicating with me stops him from communicating with them, but I have observed this throughout the process. I haven't seen any indicia of him doing anything bizarre, although we have not received our new insurance cards, which he must have received. I guess when we need to see a doctor or fill an Rx or something I will contact him.
I think the one question I have is whether he is questioning his choice, or whether his depression is simply so profound that he can't make any decision or get anything done. I know that I will probably never have the answer to this. While it doesn't keep me up at night, it is something I wonder about from time to time.
