In my case, my in-laws were offering to help pay off the mortgage and helped out whenever they could. They still think she made the biggest mistake of her life. When I moved out here last month, they helped pack up the truck and gave me money for gas.


"I made the wall of shadow draw back,
beyond desire and act, I walked on.

Oh flesh, my own flesh, woman whom I loved and lost,
I summon you in the moist hour, I raise my song to you."
