CouldBe,
I am so sorry. What a terriblly tough time you are having.
I know you are so worried about your son, but it is truly a good thing that he's hospitalized.
He will find out that help is real and he is allowed to accept it. He won't go on pretending to be stronger than he can be.

It's really rough that you've had so many blows...your X should have his own billboard with a mugshot.

Interesting how it all spins around him, and your son's meltdown doesn't change him.

But no, I'm not surprised...

Be kind to yourself. You don't have to live spinning around him any more.

CouldBe:

What a terrible week that was for you. I am soo sorry for what you are going through. Being a mother of a sick child takes such strength. You are really there for your sons.
The true colours of your NH are coming out and his lack of insight and empathy into a powerful situation that requires genuine caring.
You are a warrior and this is the battlefield. The divorce stirs up everything you may have been avoiding. Our children feel these things and become like lightning rods.
I am glad your son is being monitored in the hospital. If it is thyroid that is causing his anxiety ( which is intensified by all the stress) he will be feeling better soon.
My sister had thyroid problems that caused severe anxiety and now she is on meds and feeling fine. Another woman I knew had a tumour on her thyroid and this caused extreme emotional acting out and distress. It was removed,was benign and she is ok too.
You wrote to me when we were both up in the middle of the night and feeling the full storm of change and confrontation surrounding us. Thank you. Your thoughts and caring meant a lot to me. This is some kind of dark night of the soul and you sound like a wonderful, strong, caring person who just has tooooo much going on right now. It is going in the right direction though.
They say that Ns become really dreadful during a divorce. This sure seems to be true for me. Slander, manipulation, pitting people against each other, using legal systems as weapons of torture.
Keep writing. I care what you have to say and how you are feeling.
Lots of love to you. I can see a really huge angel surrounging you and your family.
There is healing here and more coming.
Love to you

CB,

I am very moved by your generosity. Thank you so much.

And kindness extended when someone is navigating through crisis is even more touching.

Blessings on you and your boys. You have told them just the right thing, that it was not their job to protect you and now you are going to do what it takes to protect yourself. Bravo.

As they see you get through this and especially as they see you become happy, which they will, that will be all the proof they need that it's okay to find happiness themselves.

hugs, daily hugs...
I know they are such fine people. And lucky. You're their mom.
