When Disaster struck!

Right after I gave birth, my husband left us. He only came to visit once when the baby was 2weeks old. Till now he's never looked back to see how she's doing. He says I made him broke, something I still don't understand how I was responsible for. We had opened a small cafe but I was never involved with the finances. At first it was a grocery store which wasn't given time to stand before he changed the business. Something which he never consulted me as his wife. I worked with him for 5mths until I got so sick I couldn't stand the smell of chips or anything. Then I found out I was pregnant. He was never as understanding of my condition and whenever I got sick, he'd say I was being too selfish. Later, my body just gave out and I decided to stay back home and be useful there as it was challenging to juggle work and chores. He seemed to be fine with the choice. He employed some people to help him out but they ended up stealing from him. He'd come home all moody and grumpy and this made.me feel alone throughout my pregnancy. He was never supportive. I remember a time I had this excruciating back pain that radiated through my legs my feet could barely touch the ground out of the pain. I went hungry for three days and he never really cared. He just came home, cooked sleep and go to work next morning. I was never one to complain and being introverted, my communication was poor. So after I got a little better, I travelled home. My parents had invited us for Christmas but he blatantly rejected the invite. I felt bad. I always attended his family functions but not once did he ever support me even when I lost my grandpa. I took myself to hospital when my time came. And that's how I ended up alone, vulnerable and confused with a little baby.
