Cancer Diagnosed, Divorce Served

The day my mother-in-law discovered she had uterine cancer, she packed up and moved in to our home.

“I don’t have much time left. I’m all out of hope!” she choked out. “You’d be cruel to kick me out. Show me some mercy!”

I looked at my speechless husband, then at my beloved son I had raised with so much love and care. I asked them, "What do you guys think?"

My husband silently made a grim expression and grabbed my arm.

“How long are you going to hold on to that little incident that happened after Everett was born? Mom's already so sick."
