After His Wife’s Last Operation by Donal Mahoney
After His Wife’s Last Operation He often got bored with her hobby talk but this weekend he looks forward to hours of cooking shows on television while he talks with her about her quilting. He finally accepts that she is dying as the doctor told him after her last operation. She is still his core, he knows, his centering, and he tells her often now he loves her but she will never know how much. If he could tell other men one thing it would be to cherish who and what a wife is while they have one.
