Hi folks,

I thank everyone for their support.

In the last few days, I have been able to talk to Pat civilly again, which is excellent news as he has "reopened" access to my stepson.

In order not to spoil this entente cordiale and by way of hoping to draw a line under things, I'm going to lock the thread.

Again I do thank all for their support, it has really helped me during this difficult time to know that my integrity is respected.

Karen :-)
