One well-meaning aunt had even told Amanda of her belief that the Lord had kept her from marrying solely to provide someone to take care of her ailing parents. Amanda would
have preferred the Almighty had made other arrangements. Apparently it had not occurred to anyone that Amanda might
have caught a husband, had the remaining years of her youth not been expended in caring for her mother and father.
