Through intermittent texting with Nadine during the last 2 years, she expressed that with the help of counseling,, she is learning more about herself. Like us, she and Mitch married 3 months earlier in the same year. Each conversation via text is stepping on eggshells. With the recent death of her honorary Aunti Sally, Nadine did not come to the funeral. She received information from me about the funeral. One comment I made afterwards about Sally's kids hoping Nadine and I get back together soon, she didn't appreciate their knowledge of us in our current situation and has announced she will not reply to any texts till September. I have chosen NOT to text. When this began 2 years ago, I did not handle it well. Loads of crying, sadness. But I knew to let go handing more to God, so I did. The other choice was to lay down and die. I still have to release more. Thanks Bernie for sharing.
