Perhaps he made a full recovery...got out of his bed and walked again, went home to his family, saw the fields, heard the birds song and enjoyed the rest of his life.
You say he died soon after and that there is no "happy ever after" in reality. I say we make our own "happy ending". Look at the recently deceased Jane Tomlinson. She was diagnosed as terminal. Made something extra of her life and raised millions for cancer sufferers. Her family were proud of her, people admired her.
Your glass is definitely half empty. I like to think of mine as half full. An old cliché but one that stands up every time.
