I stopped believing in ghosts three years ago, on the afternoon my husband died. After fifty five years of marriage, Edward was gone in the span of a few hours. The doctor said his heart failed quickly and that he didn’t feel pain. People offered that sentence as comfort, as if it was supposed to soften the blow. It didn’t.
