[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 622373, member: 17461"] He is right, Nomad. An hour would not do it, but four hours will. The move will change the energy surrounding your marriage. (At least, it does that for us.) Before we settled here, we looked into other areas. We would stay for one month at a time. Even just that, just getting away for a month (or even, a week to ten days) changes the energy surrounding a marriage. Since it is just the two of you in a strange new place, you actually "see" one another. Because you are seeing one another in this new way, you begin to interact differently. With care, with thoughtfulness, we can recreate our marriages. That basis for intimacy that comes from sharing the grief of a difficult child child can be a wall between you or the walls of a rich and beautiful garden where only the two of you really live, because no one who has not been through it, who has not survived it exactly as you have, could ever understand life as the two of you know it to be. I think this is true. If our marriages survive the difficult child? We are "fireproof." It's like we're more than married, on some level where it doesn't show. I would think that even for those whose marriages did not survive the stress, there is a special connection with that mate. There is so much pain, so much raw intimacy between the parents of a difficult child child. I wish you and husband happiness and outright joy, Nomad. :O) Cedar [/QUOTE]
