"I'm sorry, but your luck has run out," the doctor said gravely, as he closed the chart and looked at Sarah with sympathetic eyes.
Sarah's heart sank. She had always been a lucky person, or so she thought. She had always managed to land on her feet, no matter what life threw her way. But now, it seemed that her luck had finally run out.
She remembered all the times that she had relied on her luck to get her through tough situations. There was the time when she had stumbled upon a lost wallet full of cash, just when she needed it the most. Or the time when she had narrowly avoided a serious car accident, thanks to a split-second decision to swerve out of the way.
But now, as she sat in the hospital room, staring at the grim expression on the doctor's face, Sarah realized that her luck had finally abandoned her. She had been diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of cancer, and the prognosis was not good.
Sarah tried to hold onto hope, telling herself that she would beat the odds and find a way to overcome this challenge. But as the weeks and months went by, it became increasingly clear that her luck had truly run out.
She underwent chemotherapy and radiation treatment, but the cancer continued to spread. She lost her hair, her energy, and eventually, her will to fight. She found herself lying in a hospital bed, too weak to move, as the life slowly drained out of her.
As she lay there, Sarah thought back on her life and all the times that she had relied on her luck to get her through. She realized that it was not luck that had gotten her through those tough times, but rather her own strength and determination. She had always been a survivor, and even though her luck had run out, she had the inner strength to carry on.
In her final moments, Sarah closed her eyes and let go of her struggle. She knew that her luck may have run out, but she had lived a full and meaningful life, and she was at peace with that.
As her breathing slowed and her heart stopped beating, Sarah knew that her luck may have run out, but her spirit would live on forever.
and again for good measure:

Linda, I love how every few paragraphs, Sarah teleports back to the beginning to relive her hell all over again!

Tom, I'm not sure hell would repeat that way, but perhaps so type of purgatory for an indiscretion in life. Thank you for reading and commenting on my work. What a witty interpretation of my repeat story that was. ;)
