Biting Back: A Rebirth Story
I felt my anger boiling beneath the surface as our son, Thomas, took the leash and handed it to me.
"Dad, you can go have fun with Sophia. Mom will take care of the dog," Thomas said.
But when the dog lunged at me later, Thomas protected it. Meanwhile, my daughter, Alice, fought to shield me.
In the end, both Alice and I were bitten to death. James didn't even take us to the hospital. Instead, he dragged our bodies straight to the crematorium.
Just before I turned into a wisp of smoke, I saw Alice rolling in the flames. During that time, James and Thomas were comforting Sophia.
