Attending my son Mike’s wedding, I felt compelled to address his neglect of his son Tommy and ex-wife Jane. Mike had abandoned them when Tommy, who has Down syndrome, was born.
Determined to confront him, I arrived at the church with Tommy in my arms and halted the ceremony. I revealed Mike’s abandonment, infidelity, and failure to support Tommy.
My goal was to make Mike realize the seriousness of his actions and the importance of being a responsible father. However, the outcome was unexpected—his fiancée, furious, threw her bouquet at him and left with her family.
