To Court His Crush, He Left My Mom to Die
For three agonizing years, my mother struggled with kidney failure. Finally, after all the waiting and the constant dialysis, she was next in line for a transplant. Hope seemed so close. But then, my husband, Zachary Levi, an esteemed nephrology professor, did the unforgivable. He surreptitiously gave his lover's mother the kidney that was intended for my mother.
He said almost dismissively, "Ella's mother couldn't wait any longer. Your mother's been on dialysis for so long, she's not going to die anytime soon."
Later, my mother passed away. I called Zachary one final time.
Yet, it was a woman who answered.
"Margaret, right? Zachary's in the shower. Is there something you need?"
I stared at my mother's smile on the gravestone, and an overwhelming emptiness spread through me.
"It's nothing. Just wanted to talk about the divorce."
