It is tragic to listen about Tammy Daybell's life through other people. From her friends, I saw a very hard worker, friendly, generous. From her family, a lazy, sickly woman, who just played video games, and collected dead animals to bury in the backyard.
Was CD always devaluing Tammy? And putting her down to their children? That CD was amazing, and Tammy was lower than dirt? Imagine the emotional abuse that Tammy endured. Her own daughter, Emma said that her mother was trying to lose weight, and that the physical side of the marriage was over for years. (Although, how would a daughter know this?)
What a sad picture I see. Tammy working, CD gallivanting off to conferences. I wonder what their current financial situation was like...Tammy had confided in her friend, that money was tight.
If CD always put Tammy down, the kids probably didn't care much that LVD was introduced so quickly. After all, Tammy had never been "good" enough for their Father.
