Samson Hodge · Answer 1

The correct answer is the last one.

Dolores' husband, Abbott, is handicapped. Abbott had a stroke years before. He is disabled and speaks slowly, but Dolores does not see him as handicapped. She loves him and does not complain about their situation; she accepts life as it is without regrets.

Therefore, the correct answer is D.
