Finding the Light

Surviving a Monster

You buy the test, you pee on the stick, the lines turn pink and your dreams are finally coming true. All the months of trying have finally given you your rainbow baby...but then the bottom drops out. The man you love, the man of your dreams. changes before your eyes. Slowly but surely, he becomes someone you don't even recognize anymore. He plays the game so well, you are the only one that sees it. The changes are small at first, easily explained by the stress of a third child on the way. He starts drinking more frequently and heavier. Blackout nights become the norm, instead of the random occurence they once were.
