"Spouse's Birthday Snub Becomes Final Breaking Point for Wife"

A woman expresses her anger and disappointment after her husband plans a secret trip with their daughters to celebrate his brother's 70th birthday, which falls just two days before her own 70th birthday. Feeling that this is the "last straw" in their troubled marriage, she seeks advice on how to move on. The suggestion is made to contact a lawyer and educate herself about her financial prospects and the consequences of leaving the marriage. Armed with information and a choice, she can regain control of her life and potentially address the emotional fallout with the help of a therapist.
