It is all happening in slow motion.
The Interview.
The Wait.
The First Talk where Ed told me he couldn't face going back even if he didn't get the job.
The Heart Thing, where the stress got to Ed and his heart went racing out of control. An ECG is scheduled.
The Mad Post where I fantasise about a calm and quiet life cleaning my house and drinking coffee with my friends.
The Rejection.
The Three Days of Crying, Ed not me.
The Visit to the Shrink, who tells Ed that he has Clinical Depression and is heading towards a breakdown and go and see his doctor.
The Second Talk where Ed tells me that he has Clinical Depression and is heading towards a breakdown. More crying. Not me, yet.
The Third Talk where I am a good and supportive wife and tell Ed that he doesn't have to be perfect to be Good Enough for me and the children. We decide he must resign.
The Resignation Letter is emailed. A meeting is scheduled for Monday morning.
Waiting now, to see if the college will let Ed leave at the end of this week. They probably will.
And then........
I will be the main breadwinner and Ed will be looking for work. And I don't know what else.

The "what else " will come. Each day will unfold as it needs to. It will do Ed good to be home, resting and hopefully homemaking as therapy as he looks for work! Take it all a day at a time. Look forward to seeing you soon. Hugs.
This thing that you two are going through sounds hard, but it's a good thing you're doing for him. And it's going to make him a lot happier person.
Hang in there.
