Over all this is the most powerful
audio story I have heard. One of the main things that made it so powerful for
me at least, was the fact that the woman was actually on the phone with her
husband as he died. They both knew he was not going to make it but they stayed
on the phone with one another because they both knew that would be their last
conversation. That single detail made the story so compelling. One thing anyone
can notice from hearing this audio is that the couple loved each other very,
that making it harder to listen to. Another thing that I thought made it a good
story was how she mentioned the fact that they were together since they both
were only sixteen. It sets a picture in ours heads of how they lived their
lives together and loved one another deeply.
It showed how strong their love was.
Hearing this brought tears to my
eyes. Her voice and hearing how she somewhat broke down from time to time made
it even harder to listen to, yet it was such a strong story that you wanted to
continue to listen. I liked how even piece of information given was meaningful
to her and her husband. She mentioned what he loved like and how he gave good
hugs. She also said how she didn’t want that day to end because it was a day
she got to speak to him. I really enjoyed this because it is something that
anyone can understand. Anyone can place themselves into her shoes and picture
what she went through or how painful it would be if it was someone that meant
something to them. This was defiantly the saddest story I have heard and what
makes it so powerful is how you can feel both the loves they had for one
another, as well as her pain.
The interviewer must have had some
really well thought out questions in order to have gotten such a good story out
of this woman. I am guessing that they might have asked what her husband was
like. When they both met and maybe what she remembers about that last conversation.
They might have asked her what came after. What
she did after she knew he was gone.
