“You Won’t Do This in Public ” My Husband Said Then I Took the Mic

Linda thought she knew why her husband left. Then she discovered he had been using her name to raise money for a cancer story that was never true. Linda Brennan, a 58-year-old 911 dispatcher, is stunned when her husband Gary suddenly leaves home claiming he needs to care for his mother. But something about his explanation does not add up. Then a quilt arrives from his sister with a message that makes Linda realize her family believes something she never told them. They think Linda is dying. Soon, she discovers a fundraising campaign written as though it came from her own voice. Hundreds of people have donated, believing they are helping a woman fight cancer. Linda never created the campaign. She never asked for the money. And she certainly never told anyone she was dying.
