Susie’s husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months.
Things looked grim, but she was by his bedside every single day. One day as
he slipped back into consciousness, he motioned for her to come close to
him. She pulled the chair close to the bed and leaned her ear close to be
able to hear him.
“You know” he whispered, his eyes filling with tears, “you have been with me
through all the bad times. When I got fired, you stuck right beside me. When
my business went under, there you were. When we lost the house, you were
there. When I got shot, you stuck with me. When my health started failing,
you were still by my side. And you know what?”
“What, dear?” she asked gently, smiling to herself.
“I think you’re bad luck.”
