Oh, is the word "whereas"? That puts a different spin on the entire meaning alright.
I'm guessing from what Dolores is saying that her abuser is still alive.....she says he showed up at her father's funeral in 2011.

"Unhappiness where's when I was young".....perhaps there was a clue in that line in 'Ode To My Mother'.
