Thanks to Mr & Mrs W for all that they have done for me and for countless others.
I know they don't do it for platitudes, rather to know that they are helping others, and for that they deserve all the adulation in the world.
You are tuly good people, and I want to thank you for being there.
You both took time away from your own families to spend some time talkingwith WW and Me when we really needed it, and I will forever be grateful to you for that.
WW has really connected with you, Mrs W, and I tuly believe that you have and will be a huge part of helping her recover. Thank you. A thousand thank you's.
I truly wish you all the best for the New Year, and a long happy life together.
Peace be with you.

Thank you very much for saying that Try...We were very glad to talk to each of you...All I did was plant some seeds...I pray that they germinate! You guys are welcome to call us anytime!

Mrs. W

J,
She seems really motivated. She sent me a text a little while ago saying that she felt really productive today. Just household stuff, etc, but it really seems like she wants to be out of her funk. It was the first real positive thing I've gotten from her in a long while.

She has cited a number of things that you've told her in feeling optomistic about her recovery and our ability to get through this together. I can't thank you enough for the seeds.

We have always enjoyed watching Lost, and she announced yesterday that she wants to be "better" by Lost (Jan 31), and did I think that was realistic. I said I didn't see why not.
She realizes that RB was playing her, and I think she's really done with him. I am hopeful she doesn't slip back...

I won't T/J this post. It's about you & Mr. W.
I'll do my thing on my other post.

Thanks again! You guys are the best.

You're welcome and thank you for the kind words.

Not to rain on your parade but remember the roller coaster. Recovery has many ups and downs and they typically follow each other in early succession at the beginning.

TRY to make it safe for her to have down days...meaning don't love bust her and get frustrated with her just because THAT day she doesn't think she can ever find love with you again. I KNOW it sucks and there WILL be those days again, however, over time...they become further and further apart. Keep a journal so you can actually monitor progress from month to month. The daily upticks are typically indistinguishable but the over time they become significant.

We are pulling for both of you...just don't call us before 9 am on a holiday again. That is a withdrawal from our lovebank. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Mr. Wondering

Deal.
No more early calls. lol
Key word for me right now is "cautiously" optomistic.

Thanks again for all the help. You didn't have to but you did.
Speaks volumes about your character.
