Oh Burtha - sending you huge hugs. Echoing the advice everyone else has given - get legal advice and protect yourself and your children. xxxxxSmall victories - sometimes they are all you can hope for but sometimes they are all you need - be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle0

Oh burtha love
I am so sorry.
You have had good advice already, so I will just say that although you feel so awful at the moment, a time WILL come when you feel better xxx0 -
Wondercollie Are you remembering those Fry's Sandwich bars from before you moved to Canada? I wonder if they weren't that common, as I only remember seeing them in one shop.0

Burtha, huge hugs from someone who has got the Tshirt, I'd been married for 25 years, take care of yourself and your kids, get legal advice.
You will come out the other side stronger, chin up & titus out.

Burtha. I'm so sorry. As others have said, get legal advice before you agree to anything and don't let him bully you into doing anything that you don't agree with. He's the one who is in the wrong :mad:
Sending many hugs.

Hi all ,
Hope the posts in the new fence are strong , going to need your support
My world has fell apart , crushed beyond words ,
My marriage for 17 years is over , 20 years thrown away ...
Didn't see it coming , no hint no discussion , just wam .... affair
think I have just stopped sobbing today , crying about 5 times ,but better than before .... kids distraught , know body can believe it ,
so our world is upside down , house going on the market , waiting for the money fight to start .... trying to get him to see the kids when he clearly don't want to be here ....
so worried for the future now , hopefully the next few weeks will get better , it can't really get worse ...
such a shock I can't even be mad with her , yet
numb
xxxx
I have no words - just gentle, healing hugs hunMust use my stash up!0 -

Burtha I haven't seen much regarding your health issue recently but do consider talking to your GP so they are in the loop .
You've a lot to process when the sorting is over , no doubt the recent family loss and everything from your diagnosis to all the other events that have happened , are still in need of working through as you really don't have the time to ever do so .
When things are sorted get yourself some decent support via the doctor to begin to open all those little boxes and see them off for good .
The sun will shine again , many of us here have come through the storms of life and so will you .
Talk, rant , ask whatever helps .
Promise you one day on here you I will once again dance " The Time Walk " together
