About this ebook
When I went to Wanda's house as I usually did before going to work, I found her despondent. We had had a confrontation the night before and she declared she intended to kill herself because I had treated her so badly. While I watched, puzzled, she took a handful of pills and washed them down with amaretto. I called 911 and she was taken to the hospital. This story tells what happened after that.
