My husband constantly made fun of me for not doing anything, then he found my note after the ER took me away

Later, I learned that Ethan had run downstairs to get Kelsey, our neighbor and closest friend. She came running up, looked at me, and called 911.

According to Kelsey, my rescuer, when the paramedics arrived, the boys were huddled in the hallway, clinging to her. At that point, I was drifting and losing consciousness. I remember someone asking for medicine, someone else tying something around my arm, and Kelsey’s voice saying, « Please take care of her. »

They took me in an ambulance. Kelsey kept the boys with her.

Tyler came home around 6 p.m., expecting a hot dinner, order, routine, and folded laundry. Instead, it was chaos. The lights were off, toys were scattered around the living room, there was no smell of food, and the dishwasher was full.

He found my purse lying on the counter and the refrigerator still ajar. But what shook him was the note on the floor. It had fallen off the kitchen table.

There were only three words, scribbled in my hand before I was taken to the emergency room.

« I want a divorce. »

According to Tyler, who told me all this later, he panicked and checked his phone to find dozens of missed calls and messages. He called my cell phone first. “Pick up… Madison… please… pick up,” he whispered frantically, but there was no answer.

He checked every room and even opened the closets.

« Where did she go? Where are the kids? » he said, scrolling through his contacts to call Zara, my sister.

« Where is she? Where are the children? » he asked, his voice trembling.

Zara informed him that I was in the hospital in serious condition, carrying our third child.

« The kids are with me. She collapsed, Tyler. The hospital tried to call you several times, but you never answered. »

His fury collapsed into shock and guilt; he dropped the phone and whispered, « Is this some kind of joke? »
