79 A.D. Today I am not feeling very well. I have a severe case of diarrhea and don't believe I will make it past this day. I am sincerely sorry to all of you who I will be leaving behind but I just couldn't take the contaminated water I must have drank. An emperor shall die standing up and I will attempt to do so. As for now, I have to go to the bathroom...
I'm sorry. I'm so so sorry, but you will die soon. You will die in the arms of people who loved you...

What you say is true. Continue to live life and thank you for writing about my life in your book. I am sure you were a great man and will achieve much more. Farewell Suetonius.
