Tales of the Crazy Why My Ex Embalmed Her Uterus: An Unsuspecting Man's Journey of Marriage, Opioids, and Betrayal (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780999566701)

Tales of the Crazy is the real-life story of Charles Cole's phenomenally ugly divorce. The memoir begins as most marriages do-full of love, hope, and happiness.

What follows is an excruciating tale that involves demonic possession, involuntary psychological commitment, massive debts, jail time, and-oddly enough-a uterus preserved in formaldehyde. Along the way, Charles issues a scathing rebuke of the criminal and divorce court systems and provides a firsthand account of how opioids can destroy lives.

Serious issues in the marriage rapidly surfaced and life with his wife, Jess, became a horrific nightmare. She lied about finances, started taking opioids, descended into mental instability, began seeing another man, and destroyed friendships. Though Charles took his marriage vows seriously, when the police hauled him away in handcuffs and took him to jail on false charges-divorce was inevitable.

Charles's story serves as a cautionary tale for anyone thinking about entering into a marriage. He also offers helpful suggestions on how to recognize undesirable personality traits when dating, and how to recover from a financially and emotionally devastating divorce.
