First, I'm so happy she's working through this right now and letting this process slowly... Let her know I love all the pics she's posted... They're beautiful. I just want to wish her well through this recovery and strength... Stay strong Kat <3
Second... What a wonderful person you are... I don't know if you know her personally before CM, but no matter what you are one of a kind and truly an amazing person for helping her out! and your family too! Thanks for keeping us posted... sometimes I feel like I'm putting a puzzle together by her pics, lol! You guys rock!
Sorry if I'm all over the place...
I met Kat through this group, actually! We've been talking for awhile now, and have been chatting on the phone fairly regularly for a bit before this all happened. Last Tuesday, my hubby asked me about bringing her here. He knew how this had affected me and he knew she needed a safe place to be. I had been thinking it, and really thought he'd never go for it, so it was a HUGE deal for him to say that. I'm so glad she's out of her home situation (which was even worse than we thought afte we heard more from her). I really hope her friend in AZ is able to get her back on her feet. It sounds like she's really supportive, and has gone through a lot of this herself. Kat really trusts her, so I think she's in good hands.
I know she's been posting like crazy during all of this on Instagram! Her phone kept dying while she was here because she was taking so many pics! LOL She sounds like she really hopes to return. I know my son is already missing her, and has been asking all day when we'll see her again. He wants to go where she is now. =) It's really sweet, actually. He wanted to go to "her" room, but was sad she wasn't there. He had a lot of fun with her!
Sounds like Mike was a jerk of the highest order. Has her family given her any support at all? She was kind of vague about her relationship with them.

She doesn't talk too much about her family. Her dad was there when she had the rape kit done (yeah, she wasn't thrilled about that), and while she was in the hospital, but apparently told Mike after she was discharged that he wants nothing to do with her. He's refused her calls since then. She's really upset about that (on top of everything else). They've been close, and he's been very supportive of her getting fit, so this devastated her.
Mike goes back and forth between saying mean things and saying he wants to work on their marriage. No surprise she wants the divorce taken care of ASAP! He's contesting it back home, but she's planning to file in AZ (her friend will be helping with this), which is apparently a quicker process.

The only thing that concerns me about that is what he (or his family) will do about custody of the kids. She may want to finish her treatment and get a job before she wraps the divorce up. He may file for sole custody or something else awful.

Yeah, they're already fighting over that. I'm sure he'll use all of this against her, sadly.
