In reply to Death of Son, Marriage is probably over, posted by Dreamer10 on December 19, 2004, at 20:06:58
Judy, I feel absolutely NO guilt over my sons death. I am one of the lucky ones, my son died while on a cross country motorcycle trip, the last of many he had taken in his life. He died doing something he loved. I have met many parents that can not say their child died doing something they loved.
My marriage is over. I should have realized that from the time he said he wanted to leave. I am packed and will be moving from SW Ohio, to Western Kentucky on the 17th of January.
Once my husband was totally honest with me, all guilt that I felt, just faded away. I am sad because this was the marriage that could face any battle and come out okay at the end. This time that just wasn't to be the way it was to end.
He is going to pay me spousal support for a year. He is not going to file for the desolution/divorce until I can find a job with benefits. We have worked out a amiacable settlement, and life goes on.
Hugs
Peggy
