Honestly, this entire back and forth is really bizarre to me. I would never feel comfortable discussing the intricacies of my relationship with my husband and especially my recovery with my parents OR his. I would be pretty pissed off if my husband got into this type of conversation with my parents too..my recovery and my marriage are no one's business.. my parents can support me and care about me and not be privy to or burdened with relationship or recovery issues in my personal life. Other than being concerned for the well being of their daughter, I'm not sure why this even needs to be a conversation (or letter writing) issue. Why so much more than a "Thank you for your concern, it sounds like we all want what's best for X"? Getting into the depth of recovery issues, relationship issues, issues with them.. it's just so unnecessary in my opinion, and somewhat self serving on all accounts. That's just my opinion.. Hope all continues to go well!
