[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 239242, member: 1436"] Steely, thanks. I know you know how I feel. I'm thankful for all of you who got me through the past few days. There were moments when I just couldn't breath, and I would come here, read and post, and read. It helped so to not feel so alone. I have pretty much processed it all now. I'm not sure what the future holds---and I am more sad than angry now---at the loss of trust and the feeling of betrayal. There is no one here to really share my feelings with. I have to keep myself together for the kids and husband's sister. The kids all love their dad so much. He has, except for the addiction stuff, been a really good father. They are hurt, but I have since 2003 been teaching them about addiction and detachment and they are able to separate the addict from the man they love. sister in law is having a really hard time. They are extremely close---almost too close--- he is her support system (both parents died within 4 months of each other after 10 years of home nursing by husband and sister in law) and she feels really let down. I can't tell her my true feelings---I am guarded by my memories of the last time this all happened and his family turned on me. She is trying to be supportive of me, but I have to watch myself very closely because she can turn in a moment's notice and I will not be caught off guard by her mood swings. Again, thanks for the support---you'll never know how much it meant. [/QUOTE]
