Lady Blue, thanks so much for posting this. I went to a meeting years ago, a couple actually. In thinking about it, maybe I was not ready to hear what they had to say! But I am going to my 1st one this week and was nervous. I am glad I am not alone. I too love my husband, the man he used to be, and feel scared. But I think survival is rising above my fear finally.
Keep going and taking care of yourself. You and I sound like we have alot in common. I love your saying by Buddha by the way.
