Mary Triplet receives anointment while surrounded by members of her congregation at church. Mary suffers from severe arthritis in her lower back making it extremely uncomfortable to sit through an entire sermon. A neighbor described the couple by saying, 'They are both just clinging to life becasue neither one wants to die and leave the other behind.'
