I wish you the very best of luck and I hope that one day you will see that Trisha would have done this anyway. Imagine being married to her and having to deal with suicidal ideation on a semi-regular basis. It wouldn't have gone away because you forgave her, trust me on this one.
I'm a mom of three and a foster mom to boot (about to adopt a baby girl!), so if you ever need anything just PM me; I mean it! There have been some pretty negative comments on here about foster parents, and I'd like to think that's not the way _everyone_ feels! Most of us are just like you, taking in children we love for various reasons to assure that they have a safe haven during a difficult time. But the best case for any child is to have a family member (or someone as awesome as you!) whom they are already familiar with and who already loves and adores them!
