Wow. What a story. Like yourself I've had my ups and downs. Twice married and divorced. Four children I havent seen for ten years. Lost my mum, like you say, my tower of strength. Hit sixty and met and fell for my lovely present wife. Now living the dream as a writer on Illumination. So happy for you, that you got through all that horrible stuff and came out the other side, like me, triumphant. Good on you, now just enjoy.
