As a nurse with many years of experience in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and Nephrology/Dialysis, I have had much experience with death and dying. It was never so evident as in the long term illness of my mother. My father and sister were unable to understand the situation as I did with my professional experience. Even my and the doctor’s explanations weren’t enough for them to realize that the course my father chose for my mother was a long and uncomfortable one. This, in turn, was a learning experience for me.
It would be a life that was hers and hers alone. Calixta, like Mrs. Mallard, was also not pleased with her life of
As I sit there and wait for him to awake from his long sleep I begin to wonder about the possibilities of our future together. Will we stay here in Ingolstadt or will we continue move back to Amer… After feeling a blunt object smack me in the head and being passed out for a few moments I turned around and saw him. My beautiful Patty was alive…but something was wrong. Patty in no way would have ever chosen to hurt me. I looked into his eyes and they were different, he was not his usual self.
Whenever I mention something from the past, she gets this emotional expression on her face, and stares down. I guess that’s her feeling sorry and ashamed, of making my life so miserable growing up. My mother has a serious problem, and I’ve always been scared to become just like her, especially now that I’m a new parent. But I learn something new from my daughter each day.

He is in utter disbelief when nothing of the sort occurred and contemplated, “A thousand questions pushed through my mind, but the voice within me did not answer. There was only silence. Perhaps I had not prepared right. I opened my eyes” (221). At this point Antonio is even more confused; all of this time and hard work he had put into trying to understand God was useless.
On the other hand when I finished reading “The Story of an Hour” I was shocked and confused. I didn’t understand the death of Mrs. Millard. I think the author could have elaborated more on her death. The ending of the story didn’t make me happy like “Clever Manka.” It made me sad that seeing her husband alive has caused her to die. I guess her ready for the world of possibilities came crashing down when she saw her husband walking through that door.
Of course I was upset to not be able to go and be with my brothers and sisters but the injury held me back and that’s life not much I could do about it. Well since I didn’t go to Iraq they had to have someone replace me. Lance Corpal Furney was my replacement, he was married and had a baby on the way. Well Furney had a brain tumor that was unknown until they did an autopsy yes that’s right he passed away.
