3. He's under strict orders to stay in contact - especially while on the road.

He's picking up his ex wife in California (most amicable split, ever. She's still my best friend) and they will head up the coast, together. She lives in Humboldt but her family is in SD. I know she will definitely keep me posted on the way up the coast. If I don't hear from him, HE will hear from me, for sure.

The combo of the multiple family deaths in a short period of time (my sister, mom and aunt in 2015 and now two cousins that I was very close to died within weeks of each other) couple with the extremely toxic work environment I was in ended up getting me diagnosed with PTSD. I no longer have any toxic work triggers so this fear of him dying is the last one.
