I found it strangely uplifting. Widowed three times, failing health, yet she still manages to find joy in the little things.It's always the little things that matter.

I've read the introduction, guessed it will end in tragedy, skimmed fast through the article, jumped in the end and confirmed it ended in tragedy and saved myself from ruining my mood from reading something depressing.by DeathArrow

Everything ends in tragedy eventually.They got some time together, so it's a happy story overall. It's all any of us could ask for.

Funny, I always enjoy reading anything dark/morbid/depressing. Tends to have the opposite effect of putting a pep in my step - all those things add flavour and texture to life and make me appreciate being alive.by abcde666777

Opposite, got a lot of it. But I do err on the less sympathetic side - I don't believe in feeling sorry for ourselves or each other under most circumstances. Life is a test of our resolve.by abcde666777
