That's it, once in a lifetime

Pei (USA)

Anne and John are our elderly couple here who have been married for 75 years. Every day when I dispense the medicine, both of them sit quietly together, like conjoined babies. One day, John anxiously shook his wheelchair out of the house on his own and asked for help. It turned out that he had put a hearing aid on his wife, but he couldn't wear another one. Later, both of them were infected with the new crown and were isolated together. For a few days John didn't feel so well, and Anne was so worried that she refused to take her medicine and begged me to "go and help him." Later, seeing that we were rehydrating John with an intravenous fluid, she was slightly relieved because we still seemed to be doing something for John.

John was already a little confused, and when I came into the house in the morning to give medicine, he would hold my hand and say, "Where have you been?" I thought about you all day. "When John died, we couldn't contact their son, John Jr. Before, little John still came often. It turned out that Little John had a heart surgery the other day, which resulted in an infection and is now in a dying state.

In the early hours of this morning, John went to heaven. Everyone let Anne stay by his side. When I went to work this morning, I went to say goodbye to John, and Anne was sleeping quietly. For a moment, I had the illusion that John was still breathing. Anne was in a good mood today, mainly because she still didn't understand what was going on. 75 years married, John died at the age of 98 and Anne was 5 years younger than him. So when she was newly married, Anne should still be an 18-year-old girl. That's it, once in a lifetime.
