Greif

Well I was expecting that sooner or later something bad was going to happen. Go ahead call me a pessimist but no amount of happiness last forever. It all started in 1881, I was inventing an electromagnetic device, induction balance to detect the bullet that was shot at president Garfield. I was so happy that maybe I had invented another useful device, then my wife told me we going to be parents. I was elated until our newborn son died to respiratory problems. We were devastated and I never thought I could get over it. But sometimes with sadness comes inspiration and I designed a metal vacuum jacket that helps with breathing. If only this was invented when my son was alive. At times I blame myself but I must look past that and just hope that maybe my invention will help another child. But again this just proves that no amount of success or happiness can replace the life of a child.
