Realizing they needed assistance, Cassandra offered to help them every time she got home from her hospital shifts. The four sisters appreciated this and genuinely enjoyed Cassandra’s company.
“You are heaven-sent, Cassandra,” Marie, the eldest of the sisters, once told their neighbor. “Will you at least allow us to pay you for your help?” she asked.
Although Cassandra needed money, she shook her head. “Oh, no, Marie. I will not allow you to pay me! I do this because I care for you, not because I want any money in return. Really, don’t worry about it,” she replied.
Unfortunately, as time passed, the inevitable began to happen. When the last of the sisters died, the lawyer revealed that Cassandra needed to visit her office that same week because there was something she had to discuss with her.
The four sisters’ children also began contacting Attorney Abigail to arrange the will reading. However, before they could do that, Attorney Abigail said that each child would receive a letter in the mail from their mothers. Each letter contained the same message.
Cassandra Myers, a nurse struggling to pay off her late parents’ debts, lived modestly in her ancestral home. Despite her busy schedule, she cared for her four elderly neighbors, helping them with chores and companionship without expecting anything in return.
The sisters cherished Cassandra’s kindness, calling her “heaven-sent.” They explained their wish to live their final days together at home, valuing Cassandra’s care and trust over moving to a nursing home.
As the sisters passed away, Cassandra mourned and arranged their funerals. After the last sister’s death, a lawyer revealed their will: they had left everything to Cassandra, calling her the daughter they never had. Their estate allowed her to pay off debts and secure her future.
Though the sisters’ estranged children initially contested the will, heartfelt letters from their mothers explained the decision, highlighting Cassandra’s care when they were absent. Overcome with guilt, the children withdrew their claims, leaving Cassandra with a legacy of love and gratitude.
