A young woman who lives as if aware her life will be short. She lets no adventure pass her by, no joy go unappreciated. She loves passionately and is loved in return. She is making a home of own now, lighting candles and welcoming guests. Mortality warns her of its terrible approach. Friends and family crowd around her, all eager to hold and strengthen her. She might have survived longer had she consented to live as an invalid. That consent she would not give. “I’m just unlucky,” she said to her father. We were lucky to have her as long as we did. We only wished for more.
