I ended up with a cushy post on a hillside in Ireland near Birr Castle. Xnx I had seen that look before – usually in combat veterans. and I am sure that you can tell my story to the world. I told him, “You would be shocked… The cancer doctors say I have another few weeks or even months, but tonight is as good a night to die as any other, and I might as well keep up the family tradition – – – but first I have to tell you my story.”
He paused. I addressed the body lying in the bed, but I was actually speaking to a spirit that was probably now walking the heath in Ireland with the woman he had loved – and waited for – his entire life.
