{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}} T. - you have a lot on your plate right now, please don't add guilt to it, you needed to figure things out for yourself before you could be in a position to be there for your kids. And this really sounds like more than you should try to tackle on your own - some good, compassionate, professional family counselors could help all of you sort out the pieces of your lives and start trying to figure out how to best put them back together again. It's going to take time, so please don't feel bad if you don't see instant results - we all want our kids to feel better quickly but genuine, honest healing takes time and sometimes well-intentioned efforts to speed things up can get in the way of deep lasting healing. The important thing is the you *want* to help make things right for your kids and even though they might not understand that right away, you know in your heart that's what you're trying to do and that's what, in the long run, will help you keep going and working on rebuilding. Hugs and prayers
