Tina was so wonderful. Even on our first date that wasnt supposed to be, she was an angel. I remember the next day Alice calling asking why I stood up the girl she had chosen me to meet that night. We were at the right place at the right time. We were destined to be together. In those first years we were so happy. Tina was there magically making our house a home and carrying on a full time job herself. I had just started at the CAC. Then the time came for us to start a family. I tried to talk Tina out of the idea of quitting her job to stay at home and do everything right. I have to admit, I, myself took quite advantage of Tina being home during that time. She was just so set on doing things right and having it all work out perfect

Dr. Wilson. Im so sorry Im late! Work was ***** today and the traffic this time a day is horrendous. Bette said as she entered the room, placing her purse on the countertop, Where is Tina? Bette could see the concerned look on Dr. Wilsons face, Bette, you might want to sit down Bette suddenly felt her heart drop to the floor, TinaTinais everything okay? What happened to my T? Bette please sit down, Dr. Wilson pleaded. Bette started to get angry, I DONT want to sit down. JUST TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED TO T! Dr. Wilson decided to continue, During the examination todaywe were not able to locate a heartbeat. Im sorry Bette, Tina miscarried.

When I heard those words, I ran home. I had to be there for Tina. Even if I had to put my own grieving on hold for the time being I have to be the support that Tina needed. I bottled up all my fears and tried to take away all of Tinas too. Slowly Tina got through it. She started working again. She went to Dinah Shore weekend with all the girls. However, I never got through it. I had all this pain and fears and reservations all bottled up inside me and I could not figure out how to deal with it for the life of me. I could not talk to Tina. I didnt want her to go through all that pain again. I couldnt bring back those sad memories. I had to get away. I started working more and more. I got to the point where I could not go back. Once you get to that point, you dont realize it until it is too late.
