Yes, the story did definitely leave me with many unanswered questions, I basically had two questions that i wanted to address. first, being as a sister and as a women why did her sister seem as though she was so overly protective? I mean i love my sister and all but, it seems to me that there had to be a significant amount of age between them? She was more of a mother than she was a sister... ( she didn't even want her in the room thinking for herself) where was her mother? had she died at an early age in the sister's lives where her older sister had token the responsibility of a mother? I believe if this was a little more clear in the story we could have understood why her sister treated her the way she did. The next question i had was how long did she have a heart trouble from what we discuss in the classroom she was considered an upper class women...so had she been diagnosed in her youth or in adulthood? i believe this is an significant factor because if she had been diagnosed in her childhood it could possible explain her and her sisters relationship... but if she was diagnosed as a adult i am still puzzled on that the upper class part come into place because if diagnosed as a women it would seem that she married into money and got great doctors treatment if diagnosed as a child it would seem to me she was born into money.... these things are just floating in my head :)
As far as the ending... i really cant say i like it i actually was rather disturb by it (laughing) because i feel like she was somewhat tricked into death getting all worked up and finally coming to the conclusion that its finally something you have to deal with ( your husband passing) and then to see him walk in the door???? are you kidding me i would have died too or either relieved myself in my pants (laughing) but anywoo i would have loved it to end with her just falling down the stairs from pure shock from seeing him and getting on with her and her husband lives and had a couple of kids maybe one with a huge train birthmark on its forehead......
