My divorce is finally final!!

May 6, 2004

Just wanted to pass along some good news- and it is good news. I

hate when people say they are sorry that I am getting divorced. I

always say " have you met him, you would be glad and not sorry " !

Anyways he has been out of the house for about 2 1/2 yrs and we have

been going through this divorce for the past 15 months. What a yr! I

had to fight hard with him and for the court to protect and

my other kids form him. I got visitation for with Jeff only

in my house, and no vistation for Drew (13-adopted and he hates

Jeff) and unfortunately standard visitation for Molly (undiagnosed

as of yet). 's doc came through big time and protected her,

fought the court and Jeff because he is incapable of her care. It

means I have to have him in my home 2 times a week but it is better

than risking her health! We are going to be financially very tight,

but we will survive and be happier for it all!

I would never have survived this past yr. without all of you and

your words of wisdom and support! Thanks for the help, reminding me

I am human and lending your shoulders and strength. You are all

amazing people and I am very lucky to have you in my life even if

only through the internet!

With undying gratitude, Dawn Myers

Happy birthday to all who have birthdays today and welcome to all

newbies! This is now my fourth favorite day of my life (after the

birth of my 3 children of course!)

Congratulations, Dawn!

I understand your relief and joy completely, as I've been there, done

that as well. As difficult as it is, sometimes divorce is absolutely

necessary. In my case, I would not have survived another year being

married to the man who abused me and put my health at risk every

day. I'm so glad you found a way to legally protect your children.

Ultimately, everything we do is for our kids.

Now you can begin building a better life for you and your children,

on your own terms. Today is a day for celebration!

All the best to you and your family,

Theresa
