On the day I was discharged from the hospital, I asked my husband what time the caregiver would arrive. "I canceled the care service. Kate's coming instead," he said. I objected, but he told me his ex-wife had already moved in, and the caregiver we'd reserved had already been reassigned to another family. "Just give it a few days. Don't make this awkward for her." His phone lit up with a photo she'd sent of our guest room. I was still lying in a hospital bed, and he'd already given his ex-wife a key to our home.
