Abstract

I spent seven days in the hospital fighting acute pancreatitis. My wife, Jocelyn, never showed up. Not once.

While I was hooked up to a morphine drip and signing my own consent forms, she was busy playing savior for Jackson—her non-biological "brother." She spent that week moving his furniture, wiring him emergency cash, and driving across three counties to make sure he felt "settled."

The night I was discharged, I walked into our home, still smelling of antiseptic, and slid the divorce papers next to her laptop.

She didn't even look up from her screen. Her brow didn't even twitch.
