John was devastated when he arrived at the hospital and was told it was too late to see his wife, Gayle. None of the resuscitation attempts had worked. John felt it was all his fault; he could have prevented this if only he had spent more time at home with his family rather than working all of the time; he could have noticed warning signs earlier and taken her to the doctor. He had worked so hard to give Gayle and Ryan (their only child) the lifestyles they deserved. Now he was left with no wife and a son he hardly knows. He feels extremely isolated and doesn't know what to say to Ryan, as he doesn't want to make the situation worse. The last thing John wants is for his son to see him vulnerable. John went to church occasionally when Gayle had managed to convince him. He felt that his wife being taken away was a higher power trying to teach him a lesson about life. John does not have many friends outside of his workplace and even those are more like associates. Gayle was his best friend.
