This is also known as the second half of the Little Women novel, and is considered the 37th chapter as part of that work as a whole. In the last chapter, Jo returns home and is troubled by the changes in Beth. Although Beth appears happy, Jo senses that her sister is fading away. Beth reveals that she has known for some time that she is dying, but has kept it to herself, trying to remain positive for the family. Jo is heartbroken and struggles to accept the truth, but Beth comforts her, assuring her that it is best.
