, Jane........

i want to add something about this thread. we've all gathered around you like a bunch of mother hens. and i guess you could call us "mother hens".....

when this happened to me, it was before the "internet" was so popular. what i would have given to have had this kind of support. for one thng, i wouldn't be working at my age and he would have had to start over..with the youngster he ended up with. i reared my two and his two while he was off being a "legend in his own mind"......

i'm happy that you have this forum to vent and to get support from.
