I Spent Nearly Two Weeks Recovering From Surgery and My Husband Never Visited Once—Then I Came Home and Froze at the Front Door

Allowed me to imagine everything from infidelity to divorce while he spent his fear cutting wood and painting walls.

That was wrong.

Gavin says so too.

That is one reason we survived it.

Had he come into the sunroom and said:

“Look at everything I did.

How can you possibly still be angry?”

I do not know whether we would have survived.
