Widower found out his late wife played a joke on him with a request to water the plants

When we die, most of us want to go out with an amazing joke for our loved ones to remember us by.

In Antonia Nicol’s case, her mom gave her dad explicit instructions to water the plants in their bathroom after she passed, which he kept up religiously.

Only to learn later that the plants are fake.

Before my mum passed away, she gave my dad strict instructions to water the plants in the bathroom. He’s been religiously watering them & keeping them alive. They look so amazing he decided to take them to his new home, only to discover they are plastic! Can hear my mum chuckling pic.twitter.com/N87giD5zKT

Antonia’s dad loved the story being shared on Twitter so much that he even watered the fake plants again for old time’s sake.

While the grief of losing a loved one is hard, moments like these help keep the memories alive. Antonia said it best:

Sometimes it has to be. It’s a weird and bonding experience. That combination of joy and sadness. It also goes with being a firefighter. Dark humour as a way of coping.
