Hi regretful....Wow I am so sorry to hear this. Very unkind. I have to be honest, as alone as I feel a lot of the time, often I think I'm better off that it's just me and my 4 cats. People can be so heartless....something I am being reminded of a lot lately in my life. Do you think your wife may just have had a moment where she kind of "snapped" because she has no power over the situation, and can not help you? Knowing her, is she someone who might say those kind of things and then apologize later? I wish I could say something that would help. Sending warm thoughts.....
