Well, it seems this MLC or WAW thing is spreading like a pandemic.
Yesterday I heard from my sister, that her daughter's (my niece) friend's mother is in the hospital with a nervous breakdown.
This beautiful soul that was always smiling (we live in a small town and the faces are familiar) had her husband pull an MLC on her. He left children and her behind in pursuit of his "personal happiness ??".
I feel so tempted to go meet her in the hospital and tell her it will be OK, that I am currently going thru being a LBS and that it gets better, really. But she doesnt know me and she will wonder about how I found out, gossip sources etc.
But I feel so much pain for all the uninitiated that follow behind us in similar paths. Knowing how much pain and confusion we went thru its hard to see new people go thru it, without the support. Thank God, I had this forum, but I doubt she will have knowledge of English speaking forums online etc.
My sister always tells me that if she was in my shoes she knows she wouldnt have survived like I did. Its still a struggle but thank God I found this forum.
Wondering if you guys have any advice on if I should help this woman and how to even begin.
Thanls
