From what I know, from Wednesday, all is ok. I'm not expecting it to all be ok and painless, but she seems to be serious and following our plan. I don't want to kid myself, but I don't want to NOT have faith in her, either, so we are keeping in close contact, I am being encouraging, asking questions, and being supportive of GOOD news.

Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing. Use the pain as fuel, as a reminder of your strength

I trust you is a better compliment than I love you, because you may not trust the person you love, but you can always love the person you trust. - UnknownRelationships are like sharing a book, it doesn't work if you're not on the same page.

Thanks everyone. You guys are so sweet. I love this place.

I had a great weekend. I had the Bunt for the first time since the hospital. His dad took a lot of vaca time this month, so I'm not seeing him much. I am def keeping in touch with DD several times a day, and according to her (if she's being truthful), she has not done anything since Tuesday night. She says she feels a little bad (physically), but not as bad as she feared, and no urges. She has been in meetings at least twice a day, as well - and working. I am hopeful but not convinced. Meanwhile, just keeping close encouragement going. She and her roommate were over last night doing laundry til late, and they seem good.

I had a good, quality time weekend with Bunt. Needed it, and it was great. I am not sleeping much right now, and I don't know why, but I'm desperate to fix that. Today, I might take the dog for a good long walk, then take a nice bath - try to relax enough to sleep well.

Being a mommy (or parent, period) is so hard. You're doing an amazing job.

FBS/WS- me.
F(serial)WS/BS- him.
