The Wife
A woman's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several
months, yet she had stayed by his bedside every single day. One day, he
motioned for her to come nearer. As she sat by him, he whispered, eyes
full of tears, "You know what? You have been with me all through the bad
times. When I got fired, you were there to support me. When my business failed, you were there. When I got shot, you were by my side. When we lost the house, you stayed right here. When my health started failing, you were still by my side...You know what?"
"What dear?" she gently asked, smiling as her heart began to fill with
warmth. "I think you're bad luck, get the **** away from me."
