What if while driving drunk you took someone’s life and were sentenced to prison?

Father, attorney, and essayist, Wayne Boatwright left his career, wife, and two children behind when he arrived at California’s infamous San Quentin prison to serve his time.

But what would you do if four months into your sentence, your wife asked you for a divorce? Would you figure that without being married, there was no way to stay connected to your children and give up trying to be a dad? Or would you humble yourself and ask for the help you needed to stay in their lives?
