Lisa Thompson had always balanced her career as an accountant and housework effortlessly. Despite her demanding job in Santa Clara, her home was always spotless, and meals were ready for her husband, Chad, when he came home. They were happy and supportive of each other until after Lisa gave birth.
Chad had been a caring partner, but after the birth of their twins, things changed. Lisa decided to stay home to care for the babies, but Chad criticized her, calling her lazy and mocking her weight gain. He believed she was avoiding work and enjoying life while he was stressed with his job.
Lisa became increasingly upset and isolated, but she tried to brush it off, thinking Chad was just stressed. However, when she confronted him about their growing distance, he lashed out, accusing her of being unfaithful and neglecting her appearance. His harsh words pushed Lisa to the breaking point, and one day, she collapsed from exhaustion and stress.
At the hospital, Chad realized how badly he had treated her. While waiting for Lisa’s recovery, he found her diary and discovered how deeply she was hurting. Reading about her efforts to lose weight and her struggles with his criticism filled him with guilt.
Determined to make things right, Chad apologized to Lisa, expressing his regret and promising to be a better husband. He surprised her with flowers, a heartfelt card, and a candlelit dinner. From that day forward, he became more supportive, helping with the kids and telling her every day that he loved her for who she was. Lisa continued to focus on her health, but this time without the pressure of quick-fix diets, finding peace and happiness in her marriage once again.
