Things are very tough right now. I still have lots of burning questions in my brain and asking my wife is putting her under a lot of stress. I don't want to push her over the edge and I don't want to put our baby at risk either.
My wife is going to start CBT to help with her PTSD and she has sought out MC for us both to help with getting over the infidelity. She insists our marriage is perfect and I'm all she wants and that she has everything and she doesn't understand why she did what she did.
I just have a burning desire to know every last detail so nothing can come back to break my heart again later. I've thought about going to see the OM but I don't think anything constructive can come from that. I keep telling myself that getting my wife better and getting a healthy baby are what counts but it is so difficult.
- This is torture, this is pain. I think I'm going to go insane
- How can the light that burned so brightly suddenly burn so pale

I relate to the impact that a sick child can have on marriage.
Our oldest daughter nearly died 8 years ago (she was 2 at the time)...she was diagnosed with a very costly chronic disease, and the stress of making sure we have access to all of her medical supplies feels overwhelming at times.
Same marriage. Same child. Same stress. He cheated (repeatedly). I did not.
