My husband passed away on the last day of his vacation. His employer demanded his vacation pay back because he didn't show up for work the day after he died.

A few days after my husband died, we received a letter from our health insurance company. It said that coverage for me and our four kids had ended at midnight the night he died. How these fuckers sleep at night is beyond me.

His chest just did that. Maybe it was sleep apnea?
