This thread has been so helpful and I am so appreciative of the time and effort.  I have no idea what the future holds for my Dbf and I but I know that he battles a darkness that I have never experienced. I love him and want to support him but can not save him or fix it. I may have to let him go.....let him know I hope we meet again on the other side but fighting with him to stay, pleading or begging does nothing.....
The challenge is my two children who have an incredible attachment to him and he to them.......
What to do.....?
