A mortuary owner finds a frightening note on her sister’s body while preparing her for the wake. What was written in the note changed her life completely.

That gray morning, the Moore family received the most devastating news they could imagine: Kylie, the youngest daughter, had suddenly passed away at just 30 years old. Full of life and dreams, her death left a huge void in the hearts of everyone who knew her. Among the most shaken was Taylor, Kylie’s older sister and the owner of a local mortuary. Although she was used to death in her daily work, the loss of her own sister was a pain she had never imagined facing…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

“I’ll take care of everything,” said Taylor, trying to hold back tears. “It’s the least I can do for her.” The Moore family fully trusted the woman to prepare the girl’s body for the funeral. They knew she would do everything with the utmost respect and care that Kylie deserved.

The night before the wake, Taylor was alone in the mortuary, with the silence of the place only interrupted by the muffled sound of the rain hitting the windows. She was getting ready to begin the process of preparing her sister’s body, a moment she was sure would be incredibly difficult. Her mother, Helen, had given her Kylie’s favorite dress, a beautiful blue gown that highlighted her eyes. As Taylor held the dress, memories of her little sister flooded her mind; each memory was a mixture of joy and pain.

“Oh Lord, Kylie, you’ve always been the light of our family. Why? Why did you leave us?” whispered the woman, feeling tears streaming down her face. “How am I going to live without you? I’m alone now. I’m the only one left.” She was leaning over her sister, crying, her heart heavy with a pain that seemed to consume every particle of her being.

“Oh, Kylie,” she murmured through sobs. “I can’t believe you’re gone.” Every tear that fell on her sister’s pale skin seemed like a testament to the deep love she felt for her sister. Poor thing. She took a deep breath, trying to gather the strength that seemed to have evaporated with the news of her death.

The embalming room, a place so familiar to her under normal circumstances, now seemed like a nightmare that she desperately wanted to wake up from. The soft light that normally brought a sense of peace as she bathed the bodies now cast shadows that danced morbidly on the walls, giving the room a dark and melancholy atmosphere.

With trembling, hesitant hands, Taylor began to gently wash the girl’s body. As she ran the sponge gently over her cold skin, she spoke softly to her sister as if somehow Kylie could still hear her.

“Do you remember, Kylie, all the adventures we had at Grandma’s house? The place was so scary that we thought it was a haunted house. You were always the bravest, always pulling me along even if I was scared to death,” she recalled, trying to smile through her tears.

It was a monologue of memories and goodbyes, words of love and promises not to forget. “You’ll always be a part of me, little sister. I’ll carry you in my heart until the day we meet again,” she promised while the silence of the room wrapped her like a heavy blanket.

When she finally untied the girl’s hair to comb it, her hands hesitated for a moment. There was something—something strange—intertwined between Kylie’s long strands. Her heart leapt when her fingers touched a small folded piece of paper, carefully hidden. The surprise made her heart race; for a moment, the world seemed to stop spinning.

“What is this?” she muttered, confused and afraid of what she might find. With trembling fingers, the woman unfolded the paper, her breath hanging in the heavy air of the room. The words written in Kylie’s familiar handwriting were a silent cry across the barrier of death. Taylor read and reread each word, engraving it in her mind, each sentence an echo of the young woman’s voice that she would never hear again.

“That can’t be true,” she whispered, her eyes wide with shock. The message on the paper was a last cry for help, a secret that Kylie carried with her until her last breath, a secret that now, even in death, begged for justice. Taylor knew she had to act. That time, the key… the note wasn’t just a piece of paper; it was a last request from her sister, a mission she couldn’t ignore.

With the paper firmly clutched in her hands, she was still stunned because at that moment she wasn’t just the owner of a mortuary or Kylie’s older sister. She was the guardian of a last request, a last warning, and nothing in the world would stop her from honoring her sister’s memory. The woman felt a mixture of fear, confusion, and urgency. She knew she had to act immediately.

But what was in that note, anyway?

First, we need to explain something. From an early age, Kylie and Taylor had a unique way of communicating—by hiding notes in their hair. They both had long hair and used this feature to hide their secret messages, a way of escaping their parents’ surveillance and sharing the confidences of naughty children.

“It’s our secret code,” the youngest used to say with a mischievous smile. “No one will ever find out, and then we can write things that Dad and Mom won’t know.” This memory came to the older sister’s mind when she found the note in the girl’s hair. She knew that if Kylie had left a message there, it was something extremely important, something she wanted only Taylor to know.

Trembling, Taylor read the note once more, unable to believe her eyes. The written words made her heart stop for a moment: “If you found this message, Taye, it’s because I’m dead, and the killer is my husband. He killed me, and when he finds out you know, my sister, he’ll come after you too. Just run.”

Fear gripped the woman, but then she began to hear footsteps in the corridor. She was supposed to be alone in the mortuary; she had dismissed all the staff that night, even her husband, who worked with her. She wanted some time alone with Kylie to say goodbye, and that sound indicated that someone was approaching. And then she heard a voice.

“Taylor? Are you here, my dear sister-in-law?” A sudden chill ran through her body. Desperate, the woman looked for somewhere to hide. She quickly slipped into one of those refrigerated drawers where the bodies were kept, closing it quietly behind her. From her hiding place, the mortuary owner could hear Kylie’s husband, Trent, entering the preparation room.

“Taylor?” the man asked when he saw the empty room. Then he saw his dead wife on the table and approached her. The husband began to talk to himself, his voice filled with madness.

“I hope you haven’t said anything to your sister,” Trent muttered, walking over to the young woman’s body. Taylor opened the door just a little, just a crack, to see the man, and that’s when she saw that he was holding a knife. Her body froze. “Oh my God… he was going to kill me,” she thought, her heart beating fast.

“You were always so chatty,” continued Trent, talking to his dead wife. “I bet you said something to her before I killed you, didn’t you? I hope not; otherwise, I’ll have to do something stupid because of you.” Taylor held her breath, her chest pounding with fear. She could feel the chill of the cold room, but the terror she was experiencing was even colder.

As soon as her brother-in-law left the room, the woman waited a few minutes before coming out of her hiding place. Only after she heard him slamming the door upstairs did she begin to emerge from her hideout. The note was still in her trembling hands, and she read the rest of the message: “Go to my house and look under the bed. You’ll find out everything there.”

The woman knew that as a coroner, she needed to investigate further. The autopsy carried out by the other coroners had indicated an accidental death. Kylie had theoretically tripped and fallen down the stairs, but while preparing Kylie’s body, the mortuary owner found no signs of a fall. On the contrary, there were marks on her back that suggested a push.

“Why would he do that?” she asked herself, confused and terrified. “What was happening to my sister? Why didn’t she tell me before?” Her mind was full of unanswered questions. Her younger sister and Trent’s marriage seemed happy in everyone’s eyes. What really happened?

Taylor knew she had to find out the truth behind those frightening words left by her sister. She was determined to unravel the mystery, even if it meant facing her own death. The two sisters had always been inseparable. Since childhood, they shared a bond that went beyond blood; they were confidants, best friends, always together at every moment of their lives. Kylie’s husband, Trent, knew of their complicity and feared that his sister-in-law might discover any secrets that Kylie was keeping.

The real reason for the girl’s death was dark and calculated. She had recently received a significant sum from a life insurance policy due to an accident at work years ago when she was about 24. The man, aware of this, coldly planned his wife’s murder in order to inherit the money. Kylie, noticing a frightening change in his behavior after telling him about the insurance, felt a growing fear. She saw her husband turning into someone cold and calculating, someone she barely recognized.

Concerned for her safety, the woman decided to use the sisters’ old secret code to warn Taylor if anything happened to her and of any imminent danger. One day, after an intense fight, Trent stormed out of the house, angry that she wouldn’t sign a document giving him

all her assets. He was very aggressive, unrecognizable. Kylie, fearing the worst, hid the note in her hair, knowing that if any tragedy happened when he returned, her sister would be responsible for preparing her body for the funeral. In the message, she warned that if anything happened to her, it would be his doing. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

After discovering the note and the real reason for her sister’s death, Taylor was terrified. She immediately called the police, telling them everything she knew. In a matter of minutes, vehicles surrounded the funeral home, and the officers entered the premises, ready to take the necessary action.

“Here’s the message she left me,” she told the police, explaining the suspicious circumstances of her younger sister’s death. The agents were shocked by the story of the secret notes and the marks on the young woman’s body that indicated a push. They immediately issued a protective order for Taylor, ensuring that Trent could not go near her.

“We’re going to investigate everything, Miss Moore,” assured the policeman. “This man will pay.”

The mortuary owner felt a mixture of relief and sadness—relieved to have discovered the truth and saddened to know that her sister had been the victim of such a heinous crime. She pledged to get justice for Kylie, whatever the cost.

“Kylie has always been the kindest and most loving person I’ve ever met,” she told the police. “She didn’t deserve this. I’m going to do everything I can to make him pay for what he did.”

As the police began their investigation, Taylor began to process the shock and pain of losing her best friend, her little sister. She knew the next few days would be challenging, but she was determined to seek justice. Kylie had entrusted her with her last secret, and she would do anything to honor her sister’s memory. From that moment on, the simple mortuary owner found herself at the center of an investigation that would reveal the darkest aspects of the human being. But she was ready to face whatever came her way. She would do it for Kylie, for everything they shared, and for the justice that she deserved.

After the shocking discovery, the police launched a detailed investigation into the young woman’s death. The officers arrived at Trent’s house, who was taken by surprise by the police operation. He, who until then had thought he was cunning enough to get away with murder, realized that his plan was falling apart.

“That wretched woman… she’s screwing me even after death,” muttered the scoundrel, furious and desperate when he realized that the police were surrounding his house. He was a detestable man whose true nature was now coming to light. He even tried to escape through the back door but was quickly captured by the officers.

“You’re under arrest for the murder of your wife,” said one of the officers, handcuffing him. “There’s no point in running.”

Taylor and her parents, who arrived there as soon as they heard about the case, watched as the criminal was arrested, still in shock at the turn of events. The old couple were consumed with anger and grief.

“Did he really take my daughter’s life?” shouted the father, visibly shaken and angry.

But there was still one thing that Kylie had asked her sister to do—to look for something under the bed. The woman ran into the house and straight to her bedroom, and there, as indicated, was a chip. Taylor realized that it was an interceptor which, when connected to any laptop, allowed security camera images to be viewed.

“But what camera?” she thought, looking up to find some kind of device installed. As the owner of a funeral home, she knew about the most sophisticated surveillance equipment on the market. And then she saw a hidden camera near the hallway. It was one of those cameras that camouflages itself, so her sister’s husband was unaware that he was being recorded. And when she handed the chip over to the police, what they saw confirmed all their suspicions.

The recordings that appeared on the screen were shocking. Kylie had installed hidden cameras around the house, capturing Trent’s abusive and aggressive behavior. The recordings showed heated arguments, verbal assaults, and finally, the final act—him pushing the woman down the stairs, a violent and premeditated act, ending her life. The images were clear and unmistakable. The family watched in horror, tears streaming down their faces as they saw the poor young woman suffer at the hands of the man who had promised to love her.

It was clear that their marriage was falling apart. Kylie wanted a divorce, but Trent refused to accept it.

“He’s a monster,” Taylor whispered, feeling a wave of anger and sadness.

“This is all we need to keep him locked up forever,” said one of the police officers after watching the recordings. “We’re going to make sure he pays for what he’s done.”

After the murderer’s arrest, the family gathered for Kylie’s wake. Despite the sadness and pain, there was a feeling that justice was being done. The deceased, lying serenely in her coffin, finally seemed at peace. Taylor, who had prepared her sister’s body with such love and care, watched the scene. She had done an impeccable job, fixing her hair, makeup, and the dress she loved exactly as she would have liked.

“Now that criminal is going to pay for what he did. He’s going to rot in jail,” the woman said softly, looking at her sister. “You can rest in peace, little sister.”

The parents, still in the midst of the pain of their loss, couldn’t help but thank their daughter for her care and dedication.

“You’ve done a wonderful job, Tay,” said her mother, with tears in her eyes.

They looked at Kylie, noticing her peaceful countenance. It was a small consolation to know that she was now free from the pain and suffering caused by Trent.

“She’s with God now,” added the father, trying to find some comfort in that painful moment.

The farewell ceremony was full of emotion but also marked by a sense of relief. The family knew that justice was being done and that Kylie had somehow helped to expose the truth about the tragedy that had befallen her. Taylor, although deeply saddened, felt satisfied that she had made her sister’s last wish come true. She had honored her memory by ensuring that the man who took her life would face the consequences of his actions.

As the funeral ended, the family said goodbye to Kylie, each taking with them the memory of a young woman full of life and now forever remembered for her courage in revealing the truth, even after her death.

Over the next few months, Trent’s trial was scheduled, and anticipation for the verdict grew. The evidence was indisputable, and the community, which had learned of the case, was eager for justice. Taylor felt relieved to have found the chip, knowing that it was the key to ensuring that Trent was held accountable for his heinous crimes.

The trial was a very tense moment for the Moore family. They sat in the front row of the courtroom, anxiously awaiting sentencing. Taylor stared at the criminal, seeing in him the personification of evil. Finally, the verdict was announced: Trent was found guilty of murdering his wife and sentenced to 35 long years in prison. The courtroom erupted in relief and applause.

For Taylor and her family, although justice had been done, the pain of losing Kylie would remain forever. They consoled themselves with the fact that this criminal could no longer harm anyone and that Kylie had somehow helped to ensure this. The young woman’s courage and determination to expose the truth would continue to inspire Taylor, who promised to honor her sister’s memory for the rest of her life.

17 Years Old Slept in His Friend’s House Then He Woke Up to Find Out the Shock of His Life –

Published

By

 

Cody Dietz, a teenager from York, Pennsylvania, was your ordinary adolescent. As a 17-year-old, he enjoyed spending time with his peers and attending sleepovers on a regular basis. As it occurred, he’d been living a normal life until something happened one night that altered everything.

Cody’s mother, Bonnie, attempted to contact her son on his cell phone and inquire as to when he expected to return home, but he didn’t answer the call. When he didn’t return her call after a short period of time, she realized that something was seriously wrong. She tried calling him over and over again, but he didn’t pick up the phone. Bonnie began to feel apprehensive…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

 

More information on Cody’s story can be seen in the following video. Cody’s father’s phone finally rang, but it wasn’t Cody who was on the other end of the line. Cody’s companion informed them that Cody was unable to stand and was murmuring unintelligibly at the time of the incident. While he was holding the phone up to Cody’s mouth, all his father could hear was gurgling noises on the other end of it.

Cody’s parents were aware that something was badly wrong, and an ambulance was dispatched immediately. When the paramedics arrived, they initially thought Cody had suffered a stroke. However, he was later proved incorrect. He was flown to the nearest hospital in a rescue chopper as soon as they discovered him, and it was then that their fears were confirmed.

Dr. Ray Reischwein, the hospital’s neurologist, expressed considerable concern about Cody’s condition, saying, “The timeliness of the diagnosis is critical. Many of the therapies produce the best results when they’re completed within six hours.” Cody’s delay in receiving a diagnosis was approximately 12 hours.

In severe condition, Cody was sent to an MRI scan, which revealed that he had suffered a stroke on the left side of his brain. He only had a 20% chance of surviving the situation because of the amount of time that had gone between Cody’s stroke and his arrival at the hospital. Physicians were forced to undertake a difficult surgery that included the removal of the top of his skull in order to relieve the pressure on his brain. They would also reduce Cody’s body to 33 degrees Celsius or 91 degrees Fahrenheit, which is a process that’s commonly utilized on patients having open heart surgery and brain surgery. The cooling of the body minimizes the amount of oxygen consumed by the brain, preventing brain cells from being killed.

Cody spent three weeks in an induced coma following the procedure, during which time his parents feared for his life. During Bonnie’s time spent by her son’s bedside, trying not to lose hope, she recalled that Cody displayed signs of illness a week before suffering a stroke. He’d spoken slowly and garbled his words, and she’d seen that his limbs were twitching constantly throughout the conversation. The reason for this odd behavior had now been identified.

When Cody was brought out of his coma by physicians, the magnitude of the damage caused by the stroke was immediately apparent. The right side of his body was paralyzed, and he was unable to speak or write anymore. Doctors informed the family that their son’s rehabilitation would take a long time, and that they could not expect him to make a full recovery.

After a few weeks, Cody astonished everyone by regaining his ability to talk, and after two years of hard rehabilitation, he was back to his previous level of fitness. Following his horrific experience, Cody’s dedicated himself to educating other teenagers and their parents about the symptoms that can indicate the onset of a forthcoming stroke. “I wish I’d gone to the doctor sooner, but who knows what could have happened,” Cody said.

It’s also his mother, Bonnie, who’s been working tirelessly to raise awareness about the hazards and symptoms to watch out for. These include a feeling of faintness, facial paralysis, slurred speech, and eyesight issues. “My suggestion to parents is to not overlook any signals that their child may be experiencing,” Bonnie cautioned. “The most significant issue with strokes is that they’re extremely difficult for people to notice. It’s common for people to believe that strokes only occur in older people and to disregard the symptoms when they manifest themselves in younger adults and youngsters.”

The unfortunate irony of this is that doctors have actually detected a rise in the number of stroke cases among teenagers and children, and they believe this is due to an increase in the number of people living unhealthy lives. The fact is that many teenagers smoke, drink, and do drugs in the mistaken belief that they’re immortal. Unfortunately, many of them learn the hard way that they’re not, in fact, immortal.

Hopefully, by raising awareness among youth and their parents about the dangers of stroke and learning to recognize the signs and symptoms, strokes can be avoided or, at the very least, dealt with before it’s too late. The onset of a stroke can occur at any stage.

When Cody Dietz failed to awaken the morning after a party, his pals assumed he was suffering from a hangover and allowed him to sleep. They had no idea that their 17-year-old friend had suffered a stroke that may have resulted in his death, but it happened. The father of his friend contacted me and said, “Your son is stumbling around. Can I call 9-1-1?” Cody’s mother, Bonnie Dietz, recalled the events of July 30th, 2008, when Cody was killed. She explained that the boys had been drinking at another location the night before and had gone to his friend’s house thereafter.

A CAT scan performed at York Hospital’s emergency department revealed that her son had suffered a major left brain stroke. He was airlifted to Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center by Life Lion helicopter, whereas neurologist Dr. Ray Reichwein had no time to waste in making critical decisions on his behalf. “The diagnosis must be made within a specific time frame. Many of the treatments are most effective when administered within six hours. Cody’s delay in diagnosis was close to 12 hours,” said Reichwein, who was unable to administer some of the conventional treatments due to the delay in diagnosis.

Cody’s friend’s lack of knowledge is not uncommon. Most adults, let alone teenagers, are unaware that a teenager can suffer a stroke, according to medical professionals. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, stroke is one of the top 10 causes of mortality among children, and the number of children who die from it is increasing.

Reichwein, head of Hershey’s Stroke Program, said that over the past several years, the usual risk factors—things like obesity, hypertension, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, smoking, and a more sedentary lifestyle—have become more prevalent in children. Those risk factors are associated with a considerable increase in the rise of a stroke. To make matters worse, most teenagers are unaware of their risk factors, and they’re unaware that certain lifestyle choices, such as smoking, drinking alcohol, using marijuana, or taking birth control pills, can put them at even greater risk of having a stroke, according to Kathy Morrison, manager of Hershey’s Stroke Program.

“Most teenagers are unaware of their risk factors,” she said. “Because teenagers believe they’re indestructible and believe that stroke is mainly a problem for old people, adolescent stroke isn’t even on their radar screen,” according to Morrison, who’s in charge of Hershey’s School Age Stroke Awareness Program.

When Cody’s story is told to kids, they’re very taken aback, she says. “It doesn’t get much more dramatic than this for him.” Cody was suffering from severe brain swelling, and there was nowhere for it to go. In the absence of further intervention, his type of stroke carries an 80% mortality risk, and his was likely close to 100%, said Reichwein, who removed part of Cody’s skull and extended the lining over the surface of the brain to reduce swelling.

Cody was next subjected to therapeutic hypothermia, in which his body was cooled to 33 degrees in order to aid in the survival of injured brain cells and the reduction of edema. After several days, the swelling had subsided to a minor degree. In spite of this, his mother stated, “We weren’t sure whether he would make it for another three weeks. We had a large number of people praying for him. His presence here, I believe, is solely due to the grace of God.”

In the wake of the stroke on his left brain side, Reichwein explained that his speech and understanding were impaired, as was his ability to use his right side and dominant hand. “We have such a positive outcome given the extent of his brain injuries. It’s nothing short of a miracle. I’m not the only one working here. There’s another women in their 20s and 30s who were on the birth control pill are among the young stroke victims seen by Robin Petras, executive and program director at the Central Pennsylvania Aphasia Center in Danville, who says she encounters a significant number of young stroke victims. Taking contraceptives has been linked to a higher risk of stroke than other health risks, in her opinion.

“When someone is young, they don’t necessarily identify the signs of a stroke, especially if they come and go,” according to Reichwein. It’s critical that people understand that strokes may occur at any age and they’re aware of these signs and symptoms, and that they do not disregard them because “time is brain,” as the saying goes.

One of the most common symptoms is a rapid onset of weakness, usually on one side of the body, such as facial drooping or arm weakness. Other symptoms include speech or language difficulties, visual loss or double vision, and a lack of coordination, according to him. A severe headache accompanied by neck stiffness could be an indication of an aneurysm. Heart attacks and strokes are similar in that both include vascular events, but a stroke is different in that it affects the brain rather than the heart, according to Morrison. Because stroke is not painful, people may choose to wait for the symptoms to subside, but this is the worst thing they can do.

Stroke may be prevented in 80% of cases if risk factors are controlled, according to Morrison, who believes that education is extremely crucial. Cody, now 21 years old, and his mother, who live in Lower Windsor Township, York County, share their experience with new workers at the medical center and at hospital grand rounds. Their story is also featured in a movie that’s presented at school in health fair presentations across the country.

“Don’t disregard any signals your youngster may have,” Bonnie Dietz advises parents. “This could be a TIA or mini-stroke,” according to Reichwein. Ignoring a TIA for three months increases the risk of stroke by 20%, according to Reichwein. Cody had multiple variables that put him at risk for a stroke while not having obvious warning signs. A pinhole in his heart and a genetic clotting issue were all hidden from him. He also drank that day during the party. “I wish I’d seen a doctor before my stroke, but who knows?”

Cody had to relearn everything from walking and talking to eating and writing throughout his five-week hospital stay and three-week rehabilitation stay. He still has three weekly sessions of PT, OT, vision, and aqua. Cody struggles to express himself, frustrate him every day, but he remains optimistic that he being present was a plus. His mom is always supportive.

“What has God promised you?” I constantly ask Cody. “Absolutely,” Cody said. “It’s happening.” Thanks for watching.
