It's time to stop running

After 14 years of tormenting my wife, risking my baby's future and 3 years of misdiagnosis, I can stop running. Finally something makes sense. I know what needs to be done and how hard I can work. I stepped back from the edge and when I turned around there were people, the right people, holding out they're hands. That was just 3 weeks ago.

Hi CaptainFontaine,
Welcome.
I am sorry that there were 3 years of misdiagnosis. What has changed and made you feel that you can stop running?
I am glad that there were people that were there for you willing to help.
Looking forward to reading your response.

Congratulations, CaptainFontaine! Sorry it's taken 3 years, but it's so wonderful that now that you've found the answer you are ready to move forward!
That's a huge step and I hope those wonderful people who are there for you are proud you?
I too look forward to your response and wonder what changed? Was it finally just hearing the right diagnosis, that it finally fit?
