Sorry to hear this Jim. It must be very hard but I think you're doing th right thing for you and especially the kids. You made the first and most difficult move and now it's just a matter of seeing it through as rocky as it may be. Most inportantly, concentrate on you children. Give them all the support and comfort they will need. Situations like this are hardest on the kids and they'll need YOU to see them through it.
Good luck, my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. I know you have some fine brothers here to talk to but if you ever just want to vent or need something please pm me and I'll help in anyway I can.
Take care of yourself and the young ones and please keep us posted when you can.
Rick

Damn, I hate to hear this...very sorry about the whole situation. Just focus on your kids as you can't control her actions. Chemical imbalances are a bitch...I know it must make you furious that she has it all (healthy kids, loving husband) and is pissing it all away. Be strong bro...prayers your way.

Jim,

I can't imagine being in your situation -- it must have been difficult but yet a relief to get the papers served. Sounds like your kids are lucky to have you for a dad -- just don't forget to take care of yourself, too.

I hope that over time your wife is able to get treated for her problems but it sounds like you waited long enough.

As a father who has custody of his children, know that you are doing the right thing and you have taken the first steps in your journey toward a better place. If you want to talk, pm me... seriously... and God Bless you and your children.

Just a little update it has not gotten any better as of now. She has not asked for the kids since she left until last Friday so i agree from 4:30 to 9pm she picks them up and brings them home at 7:30 an One and a half hours early. I was not even home when she dropped them off. My daughter called me in a hysteria crying, it hurts so bad to see them like this. But she had to get back to her drug addict boyfriend who just beat the living hell out of his wife 4 weeks ago. Do you think i am stressed.

I don't know what to say Jim, I can't even begin to imagine what you're going through. Don't neglect your own needs and feelings, your kids need you to be strong for them. Best wishes Jim for you and your family.
