What greeted her instead was a conversation that would change the course of her future. Little did she know, her present life as she knew it was about to come crashing down around her...As Myra walked into the kitchen, she was greeted by the sight of her husband, Ron, sitting at the table, staring awkwardly out the window with tears streaming down his face.
