Sam was dying. His wife, Carol, was maintaining a candle-
light vigil by his side. She held his fragile hand, with tears
running down her face. Her praying roused him from his
slumber. He looked up and his pale lips began to move slightly. "My
darling Carol," he whispered.
"Hush, my love," she said. "Rest. Shhh. Don't talk."
In his tired voice, "I have something I must confess to you."
There's nothing to confess," replied the weeping Carol.
"Everythings all right. Just go to sleep."
"No, no. I must die in peace, Carol. I.....I cheated on you!
"I know," whispered Carol as she softly stroked his
forehead. "Just let the poison work."
