She hung herself Friday.

She leaves behind two sweet, beautiful boys who are friends of my boys.

I would appreciate my Christian friends praying for these boys that they will be protected from any further destruction and that the OW will be stripped from their lives. I pray that through her death her WH's fantasy fog is immediately and completely stripped away and that he will be able to pick up the pieces of what is left of his family and rebuild their lives.

She was beautiful. She was fun. And she loved her boys.



Happily married to HerPapaBear

I will pray for her kids. Her H will not forget this one as it will hunt him for the rest of his life. But this iss small consolation when a life so precious is gone.
This shows how much A hurt us, how much destruction and damage they bring to a family and to the children.

I am so sorry. frown

Her boys are in my prayers as are you and your family, my friend. I also pray that her WH will become aware of what he has done and take responsibility for destroying not only the life of a wonderful woman, but also the lives of his sons. I pray he will step up and be the father that has been missing in his boys' lives.

This is tragic. I will pray for the boys.

I wish folks would come to some appreciation of just how damaging affairs are. Seems society just views them as a minor inconvenience.

smb,
Brought tears to my eyes.

Unless you have gone through this no one knows the pain, hurt, fear and isolation one feels.

I will pray for these boys that God gives them strength and that their father will forget his own selfish needs and take over as head of the household.

I thank God everyday that I found this board. Fellow MBers have helped me pull myself out of that black hole.

Makes me sad that this mother felt as if she had no recourse.
Tragic.

I had a case like this once. The WW flaunted her cheating and her husband hanged himself in their garage with a note pinned to his shirt. Seems the WW and her OM would ride their snowmobiles through ther guy's yard at night, mocking him.
After he killed himself, she came back and claimed work comp survivors'benefits alleging that his back injury had either cuased his suicide or caused their marriage to deteriorate to the point where she cheated. The guy's back had been injured , but he was back at work and doing fine until he discovered the infidelity.
I had to farm this case out, as i was busy and the attorney that handled it convinced the adjuster to pay thios woman 60,000. Nice, eh?
