I thought my husband would be there for me when my mom passed away, but instead, he chose a vacation to Hawaii over my grief.
Devastated, I faced the funeral alone. But when he returned, he walked into a situation he never expected—a lesson he wouldn’t soon forget. I was at work when the doctor’s number flashed on my phone, and somehow, I knew what was coming. My heart sank even before I answered. Mom was gone.
Just like that. One minute she was fighting a minor lung infection, and the next… nothing. My world stopped making sense.
