How I Learned to Pray....part 15
As I write this, I am older now and I understand better. My mother had abandoned us, all of us, but especially my little sister. I want to say there was wickedness in that house or maybe it was in my mother. I don’t know but I don’t blame her or the house. I do know that having lived in that house, it seems something went terribly wrong and it would not leave our family alone while we lived there or for many years afterward. Whatever it was about the house, it also attacked the very young, the innocent, and the helpless. The only reassurance we had were my Pop’s words, “Don’t worry.” 

 

     Our lives went on with Pop doing all the parenting.

 

     It was just a couple of weeks after my brother and I found him in the hallway when there were more tears and another first took place --- a family meeting. We all, Chrissy, Lennie, Della, Jerry, me and little Pammy, were called into the dining room where we sat around the table. I don’t know what deep sorrow and distress looks like but I suppose it shows itself with deep breaths and very slow speaking.
