Fizzle. If he's MLC...then I have read that sometimes they "revisit" and have a "final rebellion" nearing the end. This may be that time for him. I think he's feeling low, running again, b/c it was the powerful drug of choice. Fixing things with your family is NOT easy....being with her IS easy.
I'm not pushing you, this is your decision and you have to do what's right for you and when it's right for you.
However...carefully weigh the pros/cons of asking him to leave. There are many in each category, and in the end, you will know.
For me, it was the weight of daily stress of living with someone who was on the rollercoaster that was difficult, nothing I did mattered or made a difference. I gained weight, slept better, and feel that I'm getting back to ME again. In many ways, I wouldn't trade the separation for the world. I don't want to be with H during his horrible phases. That is his to deal with.
THis is such lunacy and nonsense, and as much as we try to understand, it still is a train wreck in our lives. At some point, you let go of the rope and go your own way, and let the other person figure their path.....you're not closing the door, just driving around the wreck for a while until the other person is really healthy again. In all of this, you have to consider the emotional health/well-being of YOU and your kids.
Remember, put the mask on yourself before you help someone else.
