I was 58. I was at the height of my career at that time. And I... was called to make the decision that I was gonna raise our daughter. And our daughter, number one, she didn't speak English. We didn't speak Spanish. We had no language. She had no school. She had PTSD and ADHD from getting beaten up and worse for the first 10 years of her life. It's your fricking nightmare.
