Nana Biography

Yes, and this psychiatrist said, “write down the things you like about him and write down the things you don’t like about him, you know, and I wrote down some things I liked about him, almost all of them I liked, there wasn’t very much that I didn’t like. And she saw him separately, and then I heard she told the lawyer I went to, finally, that the divorce was inevitable .

She made that decision on two meetings with me and one with him, and then coming to the house and having dinner with the children and Dan and me. And I asked her something about, won’t this be hard on the children “, and she, after meeting the children, said they will survive . So anyway, I thought she was horrible, I didn’t like her as a person, just really not a warm person at all. I didn’t know if that was the way you were supposed to be or what. And I was terribly upset by that. Anyway, I went then, in a day, the next day after these two or three meetings, down to his office in San Jose Where he had been working, and he went out to the car, and I think I asked him if he was going to move out, or what?

Was he still home? 

He was, he was. He was still home, there were just two or three nights there in between. 

So you saw the psychologist and all this in a matter of two or three days? 

Yes, two or three days. He was a fast worker, he went two nights, and then, she came to dinner, and then the next day his mother called, and his father called me, and said that he hadn’t come into work that day, and that he had heard that he had taken a business car, and they had left town. Now, Clyda had a friend in Los Altos, a woman, I forgot her name, but she called me. She had been a confident for years, for a number of years, and she told me the history of this girl, all about her and she said I know all about you, Nancy.
