We are still getting used to this transition time for us. I think(hope) as we work through this we will learn how to communicate so that we can talk about conflict/distressing issues without causing one of us to take a few steps back or have him regress to how he is now.

I just want him to get to where he feels better about himself, I can’t imagine what it must feel like to not only be left by a spouse but also have the parent of your children abandon them and dealing with the aftermath. I know he needs time to work through it all and I want to be with him on this journey. I don’t know how much space/time he needs, how often should I talk to him, that is something we’ll figure out as we go through this. I just keep praying that he works through this and finds his way back to us. Selfish, but I love him and the family and am still so scared of losing them.
