The good wife
Susie's man lag al een aantal weken in coma en werd af en toe wakker.Susie's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several weeks.
Het zag er slecht uit, maar zij zat iedere dag bij zijn bed.Things looked grim, but she was by his bedside every single day.
Op een dag gebaarde hij haar dichtbij hem te komen.One day he motioned for her to come close to him.
"Weet je", fluisterde hij met tranen in zijn ogen, "je bent altijd bij mij geweest tijdens alle slechte tijden.""You know" he whispered, his eyes filling with tears, "you have been with me through all the bad times."
"Toen ik ontslagen werd, bleef je bij me. Toen mijn bedrijf failliet ging, was je er ook.""When I got fired, you stuck right beside me. When my business went under, there you were."
"Toen we het huis kwijtraakten, was je er. Toen mijn gezondheid slechter werd, was je er nog steeds voor mij.""When we lost the house, you were there. When my health started failing, you were still by my side."
"En weet je?""And you know what?"
"Wat, lieverd?", vroeg ze zacht."What, dear?" she asked gently.
"Ik denk dat je pech brengt.""I think you're bad luck."
