Michael Pearce is Patty's husband at the time of publication. He had a difficult time processing Patty's illness because he'd never seen evidence of it in her behavior. Shortly after their marriage, Michael came face to face with a woman he didn't know.... an angry woman who would start fights and throw things. Together, they worked through her problems, moved to Idaho, and adopted a child.
