Hang in there, Jim. Words seem pretty empty here, but you are in my thoughts 
and prayers. Larry Willis

She left.  What a shame, Jim.  I can't begin to feel your pain  and loss, 
but
on a positive note... water always seeks its own level.   Granted, it may
take some time, but your life and water will both  seek their own levels.  
If you
are part of an independent living  center in your area, make them aware of
your situation.  Know that 911  exists for your survival if necessary.
I don't know if you have any church members in your area that you can rely
on if necessary or in emergency.  But its nice to know your options.   If
counseling is still available for you, consider it.  Remember, you still  
have a 23
year old son at home.
Best Wishes

Well, it finally happened.   My wife informed me about a month and a half 
ago
that she was leaving  and taking my 15 soon-to-be 16-year-old daughter with
her.  On October 1st she took off and only  time will tell what's going to
happen.   I'm still in my house with my 23-year-old son and my wife and 
daughter
are renting a house about 16 miles away.   She does not know what she is 
going
to do in terms of divorcing or not  but she's told her best friend that she
needs some time away.  She has refused to take the family to  any 
counseling
since my injury in 2000 and she refuses to go to any type of  marriage
counseling together or alone.   She made this decision all on her own 
without talking
to me, her best  friend, sister or mother.  It was  not a real big surprise 
to
me because I knew something was up but still it is  not something that I 
was
looking forward to.
I was in the process of changing caregiving agencies because the one I  am
with is having trouble staffing me. Interim Health Care told my told the  
social
worker that they could take my case and at the very last moment they  
changed
their mind so I'm still with my old agency and my evening caregiver  has
already got a different job so now after Wednesday evening I do not know  
what's
going to happen.  More news  at 10 I guess.
