While drying her hair afterward , she noticed a large clump of it stuck in the comb . Looking at her tired reflection in the mirror , she was struck by a frightening thought . Maybe she didn't have more than two weeks left . The following morning , Rosalie visited a small , old - fashioned photo studio . " A memorial photo ? " the studio owner asked , adjusting his glasses as he looked at the beautiful young woman in front of him . " Miss , you look so young . Why do you want to take a memorial photo ?

Once she left the photo studio , Rosalie made her way back to the Hernandez family's private chapel .
