Bryan, thank you for sharing your story/life with all of us. After reading your story I am left feeling saddened and empty feeling, which is a testament to your ability to write and express feelings with words that leave the reader with a mirror or glimpse of your heart and your pain.

I hope that all who read your words will take the time to put themselves in you and your family's shoes. To feel the pain, even for a moment, that is inflicted on those around you. Those who choose to leave and or have an affair on their spouse and family need to read your story, just to give them one last thought if necessary, before they destroy all those around them, even if they feel justified at the time the ramifications are sometimes irrepriable.

I hope all works out for you and your children. I am just so saddened for you that I really do not know what to say to ease your pain or lift your spirits. I can only say that you will get through this and hopefully you will inspire others in their stuggles. Take care.
