I don't want to write this post. With all my heart and everything I am I do not want to be writing this post. But - reality will not change just because I don't tell people. Dakota has called an end to our 15 year relationship. With two little words, it all came crashing down: "It's over."

And so it is.

  1. I just texted you. Darn it all - I was hoping for the opposite outcome. I'm sorry.

  3. So, so sorry. I had hoped that she would realize what she would be losing and the lives she would be shattering. But being selfish is easier then not.

    Wow, I am completely surprised! I'm just a blog reader, not a friend, and I can tell by the comments those close to you knew something was up. But from your blog, I never would have known something so huge was up. I am so very sorry to read this.

  12. Casey,
    I am so sorry to hear, and I feel for you, Kelton and Kaylen, what a terrible thing to happen after all those years of support and love.

    I want you to know that you will survive this, and that you will find a way to stand tall each and every day and make them as bright as possible for the kids. I also know that your family and friends (even those who have never had the pleasure of meeting you face to face) will be there to support you. And if the day comes where you just cannot muster the strength to get up and face the world again, know that we will all be here, cheering you on, dragging you to your feet and holding you up, because you and the kids deserve the very best.

    Oh Casey, I am so sorry about this news. I am just heart broken for you both. You have 15 years of memories and two beautiful kids. May those things carry you and may the pain be easy. I pray that you work this out with love in your heart.

    I don't know who "tribe mama" is, but she is right. You WILL make it through this with your family and your friends dragging you up, if that is required. It is possible, even though you can't see it. And there will be a very bright future for you and the kids. Sometimes you just have to trust.....

    Casey,
    I'm not a blogger just someone who has been reading your for a couple of years. I am so sorry, the timing is pretty crappy. I agree with the other people that said your children will be of great comfort to you. I wish you strength, take each moment as it comes. I'm really sorry.

  21. Casey,

    Whether you believe it right now or not, I KNOW that better things and sunnier days are in your future. In the meantime, lean on everyone in your life who loves you and wants the best for you - and there are so many of us - and just take it one day at a time.

  24. What? How can it be? I knew things were rough for a while, but thought things were looking up. I am sorry for both of you. I really, really am. Having been on the receiving end of those words before, I know how crushing it is. I am really sorry and although we haven't been close the past few years, I am here for you if you need me.

    Why are people such A holes? I will never understand the reasoning someone could possibly have for abandoning their family. I'm as lost as you are. Lisa
