I don't think there is one single person here who can't relate to your story, Wes. Really sorry you're where you are at right now.
You have a lot of good support here and at Alanon. Keep doing what is right for you and your kids; somehow it will all work out.
As I've seen others here say, "if we could love them enough to make them get sober, this forum would be empty." Your situation is no different. It is in no way a reflection on you that she is doing what she is doing.
Keep on working on YOU; one step at a time, you'll start to come out the other side of this to a better life than you knew could exist. (Well, that's what they tell me here, and I believe them!)
