My mother had held our family together when I was too broken to do it myself. But when I learned she’d been somewhere she wasn’t supposed to be when my wife died, I began to wonder what else she’d lied about.
“Your mother signed something at the hospital the night your wife died.”
I gripped my phone. “That’s impossible. My mother was home watching my son.”
The woman on the other end hesitated. “Nathan, there’s something about the paperwork that concerns me.”
“What paperwork?”
“That’s impossible.”
“I can’t share the document with you. But the records suggest your mother received information that night, and there’s no clear indication you were told.”
My heart started pounding. “Are you saying she made decisions about my wife?”
“I’m saying you should ask her what happened.”
My heart started pounding.
The woman introduced herself as Blakely, a former administrative employee at the hospital where my wife had died.
She explained that she’d discovered the document during an internal records review several weeks earlier.
“I raised my concerns,” Blakely continued. “But I still think you should request the records yourself.”
“Why call me now? It’s been a year.”
“Because I didn’t know about the document until recently. And something hasn’t felt right since.”
“I raised my concerns.”
Blakely went quiet, then added, “Then I think you need to ask her about her whereabouts that night.”
