Sentenced: It's not that we didn't know what the sentence would be, it's that we didn't know what would happen on the other side of the sentence. We didn't understand that it would be a long story, paragraphs filled with contrasting sentences: mine, my husband's, my mother's, her mother's, her father's, their sons, her sister's, her brother's, friends and family. What we didn't know is that, for us, this day would not bring closure, instead, this day propelled us into new directions.
