Re: 2022 was a fucked-up year

Elle, I'm hoping you check in with us -- I think your instinct to have one conversation with all three is  a good one.  I know for myself, I felt like there had to be an end to all the lying and deception and secrecy.

My son will be here, my daughter can't be and although that's not ideal (as far as the scenario goes) I'm not prepared to put it off. 
Hell yeah I'm checking in with the people in my corner! I have told nobody else my plans except one good friend and everybody here

Re: 2022 was a fucked-up year

good luck Elle.  Having your children there strikes me as a very good idea.  Maybe you can patch your daughter in by phone, as it were.

I think I'll go see her tomorrow in her lunch break. I really feel it should be face to face

Re: 2022 was a fucked-up year

That was the hardest news I've had to break to anyone.
But it's done

Elle,

Head held high, face in the wind..       These spouses despite their physical presence left us long ago with there actions and words.     
Wishing you courage and peace.
