The Wesenberg family’s life shattered one Sunday afternoon when their youngest son, Ted, tragically drowned in their swimming pool. Despite his father Paul’s desperate attempts to revive him, Ted couldn’t be saved. The loss was devastating, and the grief that followed was overwhelming.
Linda, Ted’s mother, was consumed by sorrow, while Paul and Linda’s constant fighting over blame only worsened the situation. In their pain, they ignored their surviving son, Clark, who quietly suffered.
Clark missed his brother terribly and longed for the days when their family was happy. One night, unable to bear the tension any longer, he screamed, “Mommy! Daddy! Please stop fighting! I can’t take it anymore!” But his cries went unheard, drowned out by his parents’ grief.
