Hi all....
 
Well, it's been a long winter! My Daughter got thru all the radiation and chemo...yesterday got her scan results and it is kinda confusing to me(the Nurse!).
But, her Oncologist said it was good/better! It's been horrible for her, not eating, drinking or talking during alot of the past 5 months. I'm drained! AND she is just hanging in there....I just couldn't post for awhile. Too overwhelming. I thought losing my A last summer was a big deal...not like what my poor girl has been thru w/ the cancer and the treatment, and losing a pregnancy. Really brings things into perspective!
I had talked to the XA a couple times this winter while she was going thru it all, REALLY only a couple. I knew he would be absolutely no support really. And, when I would really need him, he'd prolly be out drinking, etc. Tonight, I went to a Wedding of a young girl who worked in our office, I am reallly okay going alone to things cuz that is how my life has been, but thinking about it today, I truly realized how much better it was going actually alone, cuz I wouldn't have the pain of his bitching for me wanting him to go with me, and his drinking at the bar if he went,till he was falling down drunk and coming home watching him pass out and/or starting a fight!

I think it is called serenity! Peace! Healing! Recovery!

Thanks be for it!
I also have to be thankful the split was when it was. He is involved in his DUI stuff, and prolly won't drive for a long time, if ever. AND, now I don't have to deal w/ that too.
It was a very difficult decision that didn't come easily, but well thought out, and sorted out.....and now, finally, I know it was the best for me.
Hoping the best for all of us....
