    About Me

    I'm a little over a year into this process, with no real end in sight. I am emotionally and financially ruined. Yay me! On the bright side, I have a great family, a useless mongrel Charlie who I love dearly, and best of all- a nearly perfect son who never fails to be my "light at the end of the tunnel"

    Interests

    Trying to be the best mom I can be. Spending time with my family. Charlie dog. The beach, being on or in the water in any way, shape or form. Trying to make a difference in the lives of my patients and their family members.

    • Hug

      From BabyRainbow August 20

      Hugs aren't only physical you can give without a touch, the warmth of a smile and word can often mean as much. Across the miles you send them to friend, strangers and mankind, a hug is very special and easy enough to find. And the hug I'm sending to you is full of love and wishes, and it will warm your soul more than any earthly riches. So please pass it on this hug without a touch it comes free of all germs and still it means so much.

    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      My husband recently informed my son and I that we will be divorcing "after the school year ends". Happy New Year. This is all so new and confusing to both my son and I. I hope to find some good advice here, as well as be able to help others as we learn how to work through things together.

      Treatments

      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      Being with my friends an family have helped in so many ways. I is especially helpful to know that I am worthy of others' love.
      Writing Working / Worked
      Writing lets me express any ugly thoughts I have without detrement to myself or others. Writing also slows down the thought process and allows me to think a little more rationally and calmly.
      Love Too Soon to Tell
      Contrary to the Beatles song- it is apparently not "all you need". I know that there is someone out there for me, but I know I have a lot to work on first.
      Couples Counseling Not Working
      Would I be here if it had worked? The couples counselor we saw started as my husband's therapist. I felt she was a little to willing to take his side, to the point of validating his addictive behaviors. Maybe a different person would be of more help to both of us. But I really think we are beyond that now.
      Support Groups Working / Worked
      Only this one. I am feeling better already! Thanks for all the kind words of support. I am here for you as well!
