You folks are outstanding. I wish I could shake everyone's hand. Thanks so much.

Now for the rest of the story. Condensed again...

My wife wanted to see me Sat am. She told me of about 10K of debt that I had no idea about. She also revealed that she has been seeing a man for about a year. All I could do was walk out the door.

Later that day, her sister said they were in route to the ER because she was unresponsive. After restraining and sedating her, she told the nurses that she wants to kill herself. She will be confined to the mental ward until Wed.

Sorry for the info overload. I'm so tired of talking about it, it just seemed to help to type the story out.

Thanks again for all the prayers.

May God bless all of you.

Mattie, I'm very sorry to hear of your wife's troubles. Life is a tough process and some of us don't measure up how we want to, and then become self-destructive. Your wife needs lots of grace and time right now. With the right help, she will come to see how her thinking hasn't been quite right and, I pray, will be just fine. The issues surrounding mental illness and breakdowns are close to my heart--I've had a lot of relatives stuggle with this and have as well myself. Perhaps the most important thing is to remember that life is dynamic--it won't always be like this; tomorrow will be different. I will pray for God's intervention in your situation and that your wife will be able to come to terms with the issues that trouble her. Don't hesitate to reach out to others for strength at this time--there are probably a lot of issues that are out of your hands, and you need others to help keep your grounded. Please feel free to email me if needed at gerbercat at yahoo dot com.

My wife and I will lift your situation up in prayer. I would also say to you, to seek God's face in this time of cross roads for your family. Surround yourself with people of faith and hope NOT critism and negativity towards your wife. I can't imagine what you feel right now, but know that God is here for you now along with every other day of your life.

We will also lift up your precious son in prayer!

For all my friends, here is the latest update...

Wed - The Hospital called and asked that I stop by for a thearpy session asap. It appears that my wife was having a bad day. I drop everything and arrive withing 30 minutes. She has very strange behavior. Almost as if she is angry with me??? She also informs me there are two men, not just one. Yes, she is having an affair with two men from work.

Thurs - I fill out the paper work and have her Court Commited to stay in the Mental Ward of the Hospital.

Fri - There is to be a hearing after doctors evaluate her condition. Once the doctors see her, they determine there is no need for a hearing. Good Deal, now I don't have to sit across from her during a court hearing. Her parents also signed the paperwork for the commitment.

Sun - I just found out, my wife, will be transfered to a new facility for further care. The doctors believe that she will need care on a long term basis.

I will be seeking temp. custody of my son on Monday.

Who knows what the future will hold.

Thanks again for all the prayers.
