DYING i love her.
"Dear Don’t Want to Be a Widow,
How ironic, my dear! My mother wanted to be a widow for the last 15 years of her life. She had a black dress for her husband’s funeral hanging in the closet. When she was dying at 98, I told her that she couldn’t go because she wasn’t a widow yet. My mother replied: “Well, you don’t get everything you want in this life.”
My point is that maybe being a widow is better than dealing with a sick and stubborn partner. But if that’s not your choice, then slap him around and don’t feel guilty about it. You will have to take the matter into your hands. Give him the damn pill and ensure that he takes it. Dissolve it into his coffee, crush it into his mashed potatoes, etc. You get the idea. I might also recommend therapy, but it’s expensive and it seldom works in cases like this. What would really work is a heart attack. If he survives, he will take the pill, that’s for sure.
