I understood it as the excuse that he left her because of it. I know I would also follow my partner if they were sick and I’d take care of them. It would be hard but if I love them, I’ll do it. He didn’t want that life for her though, and that’s his excuse for leaving knowing he may never come back. If I were his lover and she were still alive, I would be mad ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ But it’s nicer, albeit a lot sadder, to hear that those were his circumstances and he didn’t just ditch them for no reason
Exquisite excuses, are still excuses. It's actually funny how convenient this excuse was. 40 years worth of excuses?? Man should've just stayed in America.
