Cody felt a lump in his throat when he heard that his beloved grandmother was terminally ill. The doctor talked about the possibilities and difficulties of the upcoming treatment, but suddenly, Debbie interrupted him.
“I’ve lived a wonderful life! But I want to spend my last days enjoying it, not fighting hard for it!”
At that moment, Cody realized that he had to make her remaining days as good as possible. He planned a special day for her, taking her to the most important places for Debbie and her late husband.
Debbie put on her best dress, and they drove to their first destination. When Debbie saw that it was a botanical garden with her favorite orchids, she whispered, “Oh, Cody!”
They walked in and immediately heard the sounds of a saxophone playing the tune “What a Wonderful World”—the same song that had been played at Debbie’s wedding.
“May I have this dance, Gran?” asked Cody.
