Unforgettable Sacrifice

Sydney Carton will be the best and bravest man I will ever know and meet.  He is the reason I can continue to have my happily ever after with my husband and family.  As I have mentioned before, Charles was sentenced to death on the guillotine recently.  However, this ended up not happening!   Sydney’s love for me and determination to do something worthwhile in his life is the cause of this.  Sydney devised up a plan to switch places with Charles before his execution.Many people would accidentally get my husband and Sydney mixed up because they looked so much alike.  Sydney thought that this coincidence would be a perfect contribution to his plan.  Sydney had gotten black mail on a guard where my husband was being held.  Sydney used this against the guard who is known as John Barsad, and made him cooperate with his plan or he would tell everyone his secret.  Sydney had John Barsad take him to the cell where my husband was being held before the execution.  Once inside, Sydney quickly made my husband unconscious, and switched clothes with him.  The switch was successful and Sydney took Charles place at the guillotine.  As soon as my unconscious husband was in the carriage with Mr. Lorry, my little Lucie, and myself we immediately headed for home.

I cannot tell you how happy I was to have my husband back home safely. We thankfully made it back safely and can continue to live our lives together.  Sydney died an honorable man in my eyes and to him he finally fulfilled his purpose in life.  

Sydney was willing to risk his life for my happiness and his love for me!  I will forever be grateful for him and what he did for my husband and family! My daughter will now have the opportunity to grow up with her father. Sydney will always have a place in my heart.
