that sounds really hard. w_i will probably reappear when she is ready...i think maybe she is hiding out for now until she feels better able to face reality again. i know that doesn't make things easy on you...but she seems to be having a really hard time right now.
huge kudos to you and the rest for holding it together while she's away...that can't be easy. please take care of yourselves and you can always talk to me if you need anything.
