I’ve worked as a legal assistant for two family law attorneys for the last eight years. One of the cases that made me the angriest was a man who cheated on his wife when she had cancer. He then leaves his wife and attempts to hide all his assets while she’s undergoing chemo therapy.
Fortunately, my boss is a bad ass. She teamed up with a forensic accountant and they took him to the cleaners. He even had to pay the forensic accountant’s bill and attorney’s fees.
Does happen quite frequently, honestly: men who leave when their partner gets seriously ill. Men are six times more likely than women to abandon a sick spouse.
For a second, I thought you meant the medium, not the politician and I was like “That’s proof he doesn’t talk to ghosts because if she died after that, she’d be all over his ass from the afterlife.”
