Unfortunately, I could only reach Mike, who proceeded to tell me that he was waiting on a doctor to visit Catherine, who had fallen ill from the stress of trying to raise—and I quote—“the biggest misfortune to ever happen to them.” As you can imagine, that comment went down like the Titanic with me, and after an extremely heated exchange, I was told to have my mother drop Liz off at the nearest hospital because he had washed his hands of her. He had washed his hands of his mentally ill teenage daughter. My girlfriend’s father actually said those words out loud. Prick.
