text: I would pick being lonely because I have gone through the bad times of my x husband being drunk and taking off for days. Not knowing if he was dead or alive.\nEveryone thought the bottle was his other woman.\nAnd it was for years then one day he moved in with another woman and I was left with a handicapped child.\nI would take the handicapped child any day over the abuse I got from the marriage.\nWhen a handicapped child puts his arms around you and can't speek a word. It puts real meaning to mothers day, especially when all your friend seem to dissappear and you left with nothing else.
