Husband's aunt passed away this week. I can't determine whether he really feels that he doesn't want to be at the funeral or if he's convinced himself of that because it's so far away. Burial is going to be in another week or so, and much closer, so we'll go to that. I really hope this doesn't end up being a trigger for some sort of episode. There has been a lot of stress lately, between my work travel, two funerals, tax time, and trying to figure out how to juggle the finances right now. I'm glad I'll be returning home tomorrow for a while. It's easier to do damage control when proximity isn't a factor.
EDITED TO ADD:
Well... talked to him. Heard about how I'm not there to hold him, and was informed he'll be drinking tonight. Told him I'd try to make it up to him when I see him tomorrow, and he said, "if I pick you up." Brilliant. I want to be supportive, but it's a lot easier to do when I'm not angry.
