Leah's life is divided into before and after, though no one ever tells you when the line is being drawn. One moment she is a wife, a parent, a person with a future she understands. The next, she is learning how to hold her family together while everything familiar slips out of reach. With young children depending on her, Leah has no choice but to keep moving. To make breakfasts she doesn't taste. To answer questions she doesn't know how to explain. The world hasn't ended, it's simply asked her to survive it.
