Maintaining A Weekly Appointment

Much like other parents who find themselves dealing with a sense of loneliness and grief when kids grow up and move out, she suffered from a terrible case of the empty nest syndrome. She rarely found any good reason to leave the house, except for making the occasional grocery runs.

Donna spent the majority of her time indoors, but there was one appointment that she couldn’t miss and maintained every week. Wednesdays held sentimental meaning for her because they were the days when she would visit her son.
