Last week marked 3 months since Shelby’s been gone. Â i’ve gotten the toxicology report, so she definitely had too much in her system, in the way of drugs (opiods). Â Still waiting for the autopsy report, which could still take several more months. Â i also found out that after all the head games and crap that he’s dished out, my ex had a get-together at the home, the evening he brought Shelby’s ashes home. Â Maybe a few people can heal some…. Â i dunno.
 In speaking with the ‘sperm donor,’ i’m learning more about the situation–and i can’t say that i like it.  i had a feeling he was the one who’d initially helped her get started on using, and evidently, that’s true.  He told me he didn’t “stop” until the day she died.  Now, i don’t know if i can believe him or not.  i mean, i know he does weed, and if that’s all he does, fine.  But, if i find out there’s more….UUUGGGHHHH!!!    Â
Right now, as has been the case since, i’m still having sleep issues–which is nothing new for me, but just a bit multiplied, now. Â When i really can’t function, i’ll take something to help me sleep at least four hours….But, for now, mostly, it’s maybe a couple hours at a time. Â Just gotta keep on trying to move forward, i guess. Â
i dunno about anything the future has in store for me–or anyone else, for that matter. Â i just know that this stalled-out situation that never seems to get anything accomplished has to change. Â If it doesn’t, i fear the inevitable…*sigh
Please, love your children. Â Listen to them. Â Parent them and be there for them. Â Take care’a yourselves. Â You ALL matter!!!

I’m honestly really disappointed that you posted this in May and have not received a single response.
Anyways, I’m so sorry to hear. Again, I can’t even begin to imagine what the loss has been like. I’m also sorry I haven’t been around. I’m working on a blog now and hopefully I’ll be finished with the content and post it in the next couple of days.
I think of you often and wish you well. Your interactions with me have meant a lot
