She said boldly, “I’ll be dead in a year.”
“Mom, don’t say that,” I scolded. We took a short break in our mother-daughter battle.
“It’s true. It’s a statistic,” she said, referring to the statistic about couples in long-term marriages where after the death of one, the other follows within a year. I decided not to banter further and ignored her comment.
We hit that one-year mark, the anniversary of my dad’s passing. I did not mention it to her. Six days later, she fell comatose, passing five days later. One year and eleven days, 111, the number of manifestation.
I had to look up ‘111, the number of manifestation’. Looks like mother was having a new beginning by ending her life on earth.
But it’s very true that many couples die within a short time of each other.
