A thought struck her - what would happen to Lucky? Although the three - year - old dog liked her husband, Jim, he was Mary’s dog . If I die, Lucky will be abandoned. He won’t understand I don’t want to leave him. The thought made her sadder than thinking of her own death.

When she arrived home, Mary was so tired that she couldn’t even make it to her bedroom. Jim made her comfortable on the sofa and left her alone.
Lucky stood watching Mary. Sleep soon overcame her. When Mary woke up, she couldn’t understand what was wrong. Feeling heavy and hot, she couldn’t move her head. Panic soon gave way to laughter when Mary realized she was covered in every treasure Lucky owned!
