My Husband Left Me for Dead to Collect the Insurance — the One Person I’d Wronged Was the One Who Came For Me
There was nothing to charge at.
There was only a cold that could not be fought and a door that would not open and a body that wanted, more and more with every passing minute, to simply lie down and be still.
What I did was not brave in that active sense.
It was something more stubborn, more animal and, I think, more available to ordinary people than courage is.
It was refusal.
