C has said several times over the past couple of years that her dream is gone - particularly she's said that she had always had a vision of us growing old together. Now she knows that it was always a dream that might not be fulfilled. But it makes me think -
Not all the dreams we have are able to work - some are mutually exclusive - some are hoped for then lost.
My wife said something similar ....the retirement plans, her home, family life, hopes... all gone.
