I enjoyed this film but just honestly thought the ending was a little odd...
Why have her kill herself and present it as a happy ending?
And also why did Simon have HIV? Seemed a little strange and not really neccessary to the story.

That's exactly what happened in the movie. She killed herself and as a result there was a happy ending. Had she lived she'd be forever miserable for killing Simon.

It was said that if he stopped taking the medication that he would die in a few weeks and that people close to death are more likely to see ghosts. They could have given him any illness for the movie but picked HIV, implying AIDS.
I agree that they could have removed the HIV, and medication, from the story and it would not have changed the plot.

It was NOT a happy ending. Bittersweet, yes, but definitely not happy. I can't think of a reason why anyone would think it was a happy ending when the scene with the children in the bedroom took place after the woman killed herself with her dead child in her arms.
shareI think this is a happy ending because so many are finally happy who had to go through much misery.
