4 More Miles It was only about 4 more miles. All I knew was I had to be there before sundown. I didn't want to end up like the others.
The thought still lingered in my mind of seeing my wife and kids as they suffered and eventually died. But not because of natural causes. They died because I had to kill them. If I didn't, who knows how many innocent lives would have been lost because I didn't have the guts to do what had to be done. That had to be the most difficult decision I have ever made. And even harder to carry through. The virus didn't take long to get to our house. If I wasn't out of town on business, I would have ended up the same way. 13
