How far would you let your dying daughter go, when it came to her last dying wish? And why or why not?

"Food for the Soul" is available at www.authorhouse.com; www.amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.

That would be "no". They are both just children and don't know the first thing about marriage. It's better to allow her to pass into peace than into darkness. If my daughter, as a child, had made this request, I would have declined without a doubt.
