When I arrived at the hospital to bring home my wife and newborn twins,<\/p>\n
I was met with shock: Suzie was gone, leaving only a note. \u201cGoodbye. <\/p>\n
Take care of them. Ask your mother WHY she did this to me.\u201d I was stunned. Suzie had seemed fine, but the note suggested something darker.<\/p>\n
At home, I confronted my mother, suspecting her involvement. She\u2019d never liked Suzie,<\/p>\n
but I never realized how much her constant criticisms had affected Suzie until I found a letter from Mom,<\/p>\n
calling Suzie \u201cnot good enough.\u201d \u201cYou\u2019ve trapped him with this pregnancy,\u201d it read.<\/p>\n
The truth hit hard: my mother\u2019s actions had driven Suzie to leave.<\/p>\n
I learned from Suzie\u2019s friend, Sara, that Suzie had felt \u201ctrapped\u201d by the pregnancy and my mother\u2019s cruelty.<\/p>\n
She feared my mother would turn me against her. Suzie\u2019s disappearance was her way of escaping her emotional turmoil.<\/p>\n
A year later, Suzie returned, apologizing for leaving. She had struggled with postpartum depression and her feelings of inadequacy.<\/p>\n
With therapy, she had rebuilt herself. \u201cI didn\u2019t want to leave,\u201d she confessed, \u201cbut I didn\u2019t know how to stay.\u201d<\/p>\n
Together, we worked through the pain, rebuilding our family and love for one another.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
