Hi all, I just wanted to update you all on my status. I am the original writer that was struggling w/ leaving her sick spouse. Well this past weekend I did leave w/ my son and we are currently stayin w/ my parents until our apartment is ready on 2/21. Unfortunately, my husband will not allow me to take anything from the home so I have had to purchase all new furniture and household items. It's been expensive, but at the same time at least I can have a fresh start. My husband filed for divorce before I could and is filing for sole custody. He states that he is the "primary caregiver for all of Joseph's physical and emotional care". Which is completely rediculous. He isn't even able to manage bringing him to the doctor's office on his own. I am anxious, but realize that there is no way that he is going to win sole custody...I know that he is hoping for joint custody...but that is even a stretch.
I am fortunate that I have an excellent support system consisting of family and friends. My co-workers are wonderfully understanding.
This is a very difficult time...I am hopeful, but it seems like every 30 minutes are so my emotions are changing.
Thank you all for your support, I will keep you all posted.
