Mmmm, yeah, empathy's a killer too. No argument there. Sorry you've been down lately though.
"And when you're in a slump, you're not in for much fun. Un-slumping yourself is not easily done."
I call my mom every several (4 to 6?) weeks. Usually it's a quick call because she's busy. And my dad calls me probably about that often as well. I am surprised at his remarriage, honestly... this lady K is a saint or a madwoman to try to take on the job. But she has, so what can I do but wave my hands and hope it's for the best.
I understand your decision to stop tolerating it. But, geez, are you really going to go that far in financially supporting her? If you do that I think it'll be incredibly hard to say "that's enough" or cut off from a more frequent relationship. My advice is to buy her a house far, far away if you must do such a thing. Physical distance is good. :b
