Imagine losing two toes in a motorcycle accident and being left with a trauma that makes you sensitive to things falling on or near your feet. Now, picture your spouse constantly making fun of this trauma, even after you’ve repeatedly asked them to stop. That’s exactly what happened to a 36-year-old man who finally reached his breaking point during a bowling outing. Unable to handle his wife’s relentless teasing, he took their son and fled to his parents’ house.
