Just read a little story by BJ Roan.
Made me think about the last time I saw a loved one before they passed.
I was there for my grama's passing. I'll never forget it. Asking her to ask grapa for forgive me for not being there for his passing and her saying she will. Telling her that I loved her and her whipsering it back to me. Hearing "the death rattle". The last breath. It was truly a moment.
I wasn't there for my grapa's passing. I have a hard time forgiving my family for not telling me sooner. All the surrounding events that happened before the hospital and especially while he was in the hospital. All my family members being able to talk to him and be with him, all but me. Ok, I forgive, but not ever forget.
I don't remember much of grapa's funeral.
I remember grama's funeral.
ok...I forgive.

This is a moving piece. I wish I could have been here for my mom. I had a good life in Texas, but missed so much by not living near my family. Thank you for the link.
