Thanks for all the sage advice. I have been on not initiated contact since Thanksgiving but do respond to her when she contacts me. I recently met with my younger sons Psychologist to get advice on how to help him deal with this. He and his mother were very close and he is not handling this well. They are not currently speaking. This really makes me sad. I also spoke with the Dr. about my wife. She has multiple issues from her late teens and suffered a bout of depression in her early twenties that resulted in an attempted suicide. She is adept at hiding her depression from others and can appear normal at work and with friends. I noticed a change in her demeanor the past year or so prior to leaving. I am concerned that she could be depressed. Is there anything I can do for her?

I don't think there is anything you can do for her. You are already taking care of the home and children. However, if she brings it up to you, you could ask "Is there a way that I can support you right now?" But that doesn't mean being a doormat or giving her money. How is she supporting herself?
I would be concerned that there is someone else. Even if it is only online right now.
