Hi All,

I need to simply say this for two reasons. 1) my situation is really unusual, and 2) I need so much more time now to find and move my wife to a facility where she would be happier, and closer where we can be closer.

I talked to her counselor at length this afternoon, and he is in agreement, but it is going to take alot more time to facilitate this. He did agree, our situation is unusual. I have his full support along with my family. I need to devote my time to Char now and this effort.

For those of you here who have touched me:

Larry: You are so giving. But please remember to now give back to you. I now realize that you are or have gone through a divorce, but please remember yourself, and your kids, and know that you must be a loving father. And just thank you.

Melody: I so wish that young people today could have the committment and the values that you do.

Turtle: Always keep your head up.

Opt: And for you, a special thanks. And you were right all along. I have now a good relationship with her counselor and the administrator there, and it feels so good that we are all now working on behalf of her and we are going to succeed. When I first got here to MB I felt that she was like a prisoner there, but from my discussion with her counselor today we are on the same page. It's going to take awhile. Know what tho, she is always now getting a second salad or scoop of ice cream or glass of milk at meals now.

Cant: As I posted to you, I feel I know what to do. I honestly feel I have Someone now guiding me. And yes Cant, it sometimes pays to be romantic, if you also have a business head on your shoulders. *s*

Pepper: from what I have read of your posts, Peace be with you, but god lighten up! We all have been thru alot!

NotLookingGood: and for you especially. I cannot say how so disappointed I am that you have not accepted the advice from the people here at MB. All I can offer is this, and it is Not from MB, but please listen. Tonight, when you are in bed for sleep, just close your eyes and say the following - "Jesus I Trust In You" nine times. Keep doing that each night, and if you can at the 3 o'clock hour, for the next nine days. Then, and only then, approach your wife.

For all of the rest of you here I so wish you well. I could spend more time here, but at age nearly 68 now I can't. My time is her's. This is in Christ's hands now, but I do want to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary with Her. I feel now that is up to me to do as well as her. And, I am confident we will.

Good luck and prayers to all of you.

Tom

Tom,

Enjoy your time with your wife.
Drop in from time to time, when you can and if you like.
You have a lot to offer.

All blessings to you Tom. I know you will take care of that wife of yours. I feel the love you have for her through your postings. I will be okay here. I take care of my son. He wants to stay with dad as much as he can. He is with me at least three days a week, sometimes more. He had to do his chores today, while manipulating Dad to get out of as much as he could.
