Kel sleeps through the night now (well most of the time- except when she is in pain).. She used to wake up terrified-- wondering where she was.. I would reach and touch her and tell her that she is with me. She would say "I am safe now" and go back to sleep. Now she can sleep in her own bed. She no longer has to stay awake feeling the need to protect herself and her children. She is amazing and now smiles all the time..She has accomplished so much in the past month and I am so proud of her! But, it is still one day at a time. We are still riding that rollercoaster. Sometimes she misses him (the ex) and wants things to be back to "normal". I had her make a list of all the good things and all negative. The negative took up three pages (front and back). This helps-- she pulls it out and remembers why she left...
