Hello all- I am new to this forum. My ex husband and father of my children was recently diagnosed with als. Our relationship deteriorated long ago and we cannot communicate at all. I am saddened by his illness but cannot express any of my feelings without a tirade of anger and resentment back at me, so I remain silent. I am further saddened by my ex-husband's treatment of our children. He is righfully angry and upset about his illness, but why take it out on the children and be mean to them? One of the kids looks a lot like me and my ex is particularly mean and abusive to her. I feel like he is using her to unleash his anger on and it seems so unfair. My heart aches. I often wonder why a person faced with a disease like would use the precious time they have left to effectively destroy relationships?
