My Ex-husband Sent Me a Flash Drive Before He Died – Now I Can’t Forgive Myself for Divorcing Him
Katherine, 43 and alone, enjoyed a quiet life filled with work and walks in the park. Her peace shattered when she received a surprising envelope containing a flash drive labeled “Tom,” her high school sweetheart and ex-husband, whom she hadn’t heard from in 15 years.
Curious and anxious, she plugged the drive into her computer. A video played, revealing a frail Tom who confessed he was sick and regretted letting her go. He expressed his enduring love and left her a few belongings.
Stunned, Katherine felt a wave of regret and guilt for not reaching out sooner. Desperate to find him, she messaged Tom’s friend John, only to learn Tom had passed away the previous week.
Days later, she received a small box from Tom, filled with meaningful trinkets from their past—a movie ticket, a seashell, and a photo from their last encounter. Each item was a reminder of their love.
With a heavy heart, Katherine visited Tom’s grave, bringing daisies and a heartfelt letter. She expressed her sorrow and gratitude, finding a sense of peace in honoring his memory and preparing to move forward, carrying a piece of him with her.
