He Chose Another's Daughter Over Ours
My husband secretly swapped the transplant recipient, giving the kidney that was meant for our daughter to the daughter of the woman he had always loved.
Not long after, our daughter's condition worsened. The doctors tried to save her, but it was no use. She didn't make it.
At the same time, the other girl's surgery was a success. My husband was so overjoyed that he handed out little gifts to the entire hospital in celebration.
Rage and grief overwhelmed me, and I collapsed. When I came to, the doctors told me I had cancer. Late-stage. My time was running out.
With nothing left to hold on to, I walked out of the hospital, clutching the urn that held my daughter's ashes.
In the cold, empty house, I sat alone and drafted the divorce papers.
