Can't believe that I am sitting here with tears running down my face! Beautiful story, well written and so emotional! Thank you
when there is no dnr order.....when all the nurses and doc rushed into the room CPR was started immediately....not a pretty scene this story trys to portray...definately NOT a peaceful ending. living will mean nothing...there HAS to e a doctors order for DNR EVERYTIME a patient enters the hospitalperiod
it's a good thing I can type without looking at the keyboard because I can't see right now
Is elli the nurse supposed to be representation of John's third child?
Yes, if Madeleine is Maddie
then - Elizabeth is Ellie.
At least for me she is
Thanks JoeDreamer for a heart tugging love story
Beautiful! Thanks!
You should collect your romance stories in one volume and self publish.
There is a definite market.
Thank you for your hard work, wishing you a very good holiday season.

Nobody makes me cry. I don't like this author one bit for doing that to me. God, I hate crying.
Very well told story. Hits all the right notes.
That being said, I don't think I could read it over as I do with some of my favorites, just way too sad. It takes quite a bit to make me cry.
Wonderful story full of heart felt fealings and emotional heart break. Brovo
my wife & I was married on Valentines day. brings back memories of our lives together. she was sitting up laughing & the next minute she was gone .she was all ways fearful lingering like her dad did. all ways said that wasn't living.
Yes I was weeping by the end of this truely excellent story, like everyone else. Describing deep-seated love, the story is so well written, has great character development, glows with excellent dialogue. I loved the references to historical events; they brought back memories of my living through them. As my wonderful wife and I approach our 57th anniversary (and I my 80th birthday), we realize that one or the other of us will find ourselves in the same situation in the not-so-distant future.... Thanks for the story! J.
Losing someone you truly love to Cancer is just so sad. This a well written story that is truly a tear jerker. 5 stars
Not what I expected from Literotica, but I’m glad I got to read this one. Well done!

Thank you for writing such a lovely story!! Very beautifully written and I had tears in my eyes multiple times while reading this wonderful story.
This story touched my life in so many ways...
Thank you. 5+++ stars is not enough for your excellent work.
An absolutely brilliant story
So why am I sitting here crying - Perhaps because I have lost both my Mother and Wife to cancer.
5*s duly awarded.
This was the most loving and heart wrenching story I’ve ever read in my entire life. If this was a movie, I’d easily watch it over and over, and I’d still cry every time it came to and end. This is absolutely my favorite love story I’ve ever read.
Truly a great and emotional story of what it is to have one and only for your lifetime . Thank you so much for this wonderful story .
This was a great story, emotional but it was good, thank you for writing it
Truly wonderful storytelling. Touching, and felt so authentic. I admit to crying several times, but it was wonderful at the same time. I feel like I'm not so alone, now, in feeling deep romantic devotion for my wife. So many other stories on this site lack any depth and only appeal to our baser urges. This story was a breath of fresh air that warmed my heart like a prairie chinook in Spring. I finished this story feeling sentimental but more satisfied with the time spent reading than I have in ages. Thank you, thank you, JoeDreamer, for doing mankind such a service with your writing.
P. S. I wish gifted creative writers like you could have an editor. I'm an incorrigible stickler so grammar/typo things distract me, and there were a tiny few of them, if we're being honest. With one editorial pass this would be professional quality, and I think your readers would be willing to pay you. Seriously.
Touching, loving, adorable & such a piece of art. Can't put it in words how much it moved me. You deserve much more than 5 for this. Such a emotionally fulfilling love story❤️
Acck! Who is Elli? I was sure she was Elizabeth's ghost, helping her father through this trial. The the story ended.
BTW, great story well written. ¹
Who was Elli? Played such a vital part in the story yet we know nothing about her. Very moving, Deserves more than 5*. Thank you.

He tells that he was a soldier in the Korean War, but a child in the Second World War? That is chronologically puzzling me, since there were just five years between these two wars.
