[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 295132, member: 805"] Linda, first of all, having all those thoughts and feelings is not wrong. What would be wrong is acting upon those feelings by saying or doing something that is emotion based. You know, deep down inside, that nothing, I mean nothing, could have helped your husband in his illness. That was how he dealt with the stress in his life at the end. He closed himself off to you and his children. You remained tuned in and involved with your children and your remained involved and tuned in since their father passed. What'a, should'a, could'a is not connstructive. YOU could not have changed the path. He could have, but did not have the strength or the will. I'm not dissing him here, but just being real. You have been the rock and the strength for those children from the very beginning. Look around at your beautiful home, enjoy the birds out back, express your emotions through the piano and the paintings. You know there are constructive ways to deal with your feelings. You've done it in the past, you will do it now. Lots of hugs coming your way from Virginia. Stay strong. Sharon [/QUOTE]
