I can’t understand it, anymore.
Mary’s become so different ever since she was diagnosed with that damned disease. She was once so sweet and charming.
I could smile so easily when she would. She’s even smile at things so simple and humble it almost seemed ridiculous.
But that was Mary.
Before this god damn disease. Before it took over and she became an unbearable person.
One minute, she’s yelling and screaming at me to leave her alone; spewing insults directed at me and herself. And then the next, she’s begging for me to stay and never leaver her alone.
Crying, even.
I can’t stand it that I’ve been only visiting her sporadically.
It depresses me to look at her.
But Mary...I miss you.
The doctor came to see me, earlier today. He gave me the understanding that Mary can go on anywhere from six month to three years.
She’ll be allowed to come and stay at home. To be around her family in her final days.
Her final days with me.
Six months to three years of this? Of yelling and crying and this miserable, ugly Mary?
And with my luck, it’ll stretch above and beyond three years.
That just isn’t fair. Even if it is my wife, why would anyone want to be put through that?
Mary...
I love you, Mary.
...and I’m sorry.
And James pressed a kiss to her cheek.
