"My dad's hanging by a thread. He needs 200,000 dollars for an operation, and you're telling me you won't sell the house and the car?" my husband, Michael Clark, yelled at me. He jabbed a finger right in my face and called me a cold-blooded monster. I calmly reminded him, "Remember that 70,000 dollars for my dad's surgery? I paid for every penny of that. All by myself." He exploded. "How is that the same? That was just 70,000 dollars. We're talking 200,000 dollars here!" I nodded. "You're right. It's not the same. Last time, I paid for everything, and you paid zero. So, we'll do it again. You find the 200,000 dollars. I'll chip in zero." He grabbed the ashtray and hurled it straight at my head.
