Linkmeister, thanks for sharing that. I didn't see your post (or BobbyJ's) before I replied. I guess that's what I don't understand, how to detach with love vs. just plain detaching. I don't feel like I'm doing it with love, but I have to do it for myself and my kids. AH is such a liar and manipulator that I can't stand to be around him. We don't even sleep in the same room (haven't for 2.5 yrs...I sleep on the couch in the living room)...
BobbyJ, you are so right. Earlier today when I spoke to him he said they kept him in the hospital because of his stomach issues, which were caused by the sinus drainage... Of course none of which are caused by alcohol. I can definitely see more hospital visits in the future...
