She wears black. Always. As it turns out, death was not the end of her story. Final Chapter.

Rebecca Zwitser from Last Writes

Thanks for being here on our story journey...
Since we published we’ve had amazing feedback. Sometimes the stories from people who use Last Writes are heart-breaking, but they tell us the journal has given them hope, relief and clarity. It provides a safe space for them to articulate important things and, hopefully, help their family when they die.
I know that, for Penny, living without her ‘larger than life’ mum has been tough.
Penny says, I’ve always said that mum had a very big heart. According to the Coroner – far too big. I am sorry that mum’s heart killed her but, as the recipient of that heart’s love, I feel unbelievably lucky, blessed and cherished.
Penny’s mum’s death wasn’t the end of her story. She lives through every person that authors their Last Writes journal. We reckon her big heart is full of joy.
Meanwhile, I am dressed in scarlet and she is wearing black. Always.
