I mainly wrote this short story for my children. They were young when we lost their mom and my wife of twenty-six years. I just want them to know a little more about her. I especially want them to know just how strong and unselfish she was in life and how strong she remained even as death knocked at our door. Then, I let some friends read this story and they really pushed me to share it.
So if you ask me what this story about, I will tell you –
This short story is based upon a true story. Everyone dies in life, but sometimes it matters how you die. Some die in fear, others face the inevitable and accept their sealed fate. Ruth knew her time had come for her to leave this world. But even as death was knocking at her door, she remained strong, and always put her family first. This is a story based upon her last days on earth, how she chose to die and how she lived.
