How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue

Elodie got ready quickly and headed straight to the hospital.

She had a full day ahead.

In the morning, she'd be undergoing chemotherapy and finalizing her divorce. In the afternoon, she'd arranged to meet Joseph, who was bringing along his doctor friend.

Her first round of chemo was scheduled for 8:30.
