CB,<BR>Sounds very encouraging. Don't get the hopes too high, though. Try to stay calm and listen to what she has to say (remember, NO LB's, if possible). Just go with the flow. I wish you all the luck in the world!!<P>MOM

Update <BR>Had conversation with ws , we talked about how we saw eachother the last few years<BR>not much more , when she felt conversation was over she got up and walked away. not much more . today I faxed her :<BR>Try not to let all of the questions make you angry. those who are trying to invest in you need every possible reason to trust you.<BR>she faxes back <BR>The questions do not anger me . i understand the need for questions. It is the search for the answers in my tiny little brain that is frustrating.<BR> Any Ideas ? input ?

This all sounds sooooo good!<P>My advice is DON'T ask anymore. She obviously feels like she owes you explanations but doesn't really have them. This is confusing and maybe disconcerting to her. Don't ask. It will take time, maybe a long time, but you'll get answers one day.<P>For now, continue to love her and reassure her. You're doing fine.<P>God Bless,<BR>Lupo

It is a good thing that she would actually sit down to talk , I did get a sense that she was doing it as a favor ? maybe Im reading to much into it . I thought that when she said that we would try to sort things out, we would actually talk about the what if , how we would recover, maybe I am asking for to much. Thanks foks for your input.

Update for Sat.<BR>Ws was over most of afternoon with kids. She asked me and the kids to go out for dinner , we did and it was fun . We came home and watched a movie together . When it was time for her to go I walked her out to the car sshe said that she had fun today and asked how I felt about it . I said that it was like old times , she agreed. I said that I would like to do it again . She smilled . A big hug from her and I reminded her that I loved her and sent her on her way.
