Forgiving her and Rachel did not happen overnight.
Understanding Goldi took even longer.
I no longer remember her only as the woman who walked away from her newborn child.
I remember her as a frightened young mother who believed turning herself into a villain was the final gift she could give us.
She was wrong.
But she loved us.
And after 18 years, Leo and I finally knew the truth well enough to mourn her instead of hating her.
Do you believe Goldi’s decision was an act of selfless love, or did she unfairly take away Arthur’s right to choose how they would face her illness together?
