My oldest child is addicted to drugs and will be 49. I’ve lost her somewhere on the streets. So my husband knew his addiction would be a double whammy for me. Last august he went from not being able to live without me to ignoring my existence. After 37 years he found someone else. He just dumped me and never could tell me why. Coward. He relapsed, lost his job and now in jail. You would think that pain would be erased by anger and disappointment but it’s not.
