My ending the Monke´s Paw

Mr. White went, when his wife died, to see the face of Herbert, the last wish was asked by his son and could not do anything. Then that night he went mad. He never went out of his house, ate, slept, he only spoke with the monkey's paw. The neighbors realized what happened and fear locked him in a psychiatric hospital for killing his wife. Suddenly he reminded there was the monkey's paw and asked the only friend who visited him, to bring the monkey's paw. His friend took it believing he is mad. Mr. White explained that it was magic and if somebody asked for a wish, the wish will come true. So he made his wish "I want to recover my life when I was playing chess in my living room around my family and friend," he would give the other two wishes to his family; his friend said "Ok, my friend ". After his friend Mr. White asked the desire, Mr. White awoke in front of a fireplace holding the monkey's paw, he saw his family and cry with happiness, his friend, Sergeant, was about to leave . Mr. White never remembered his friend from the hospital. Mr. White smiled and threw the monkey's paw into the fire. It only had been a bad dream or a premonition.
