Not Saying Goodbye To My Father
My biggest regret ever is not saying goodbye to my father. He was in the hospital, sedated and dying, but I didn’t realize it. I was in denial. We all thought he’d get better, and I never took advantage of any time I was with him alone. There were always nurses in the room and I felt awkward. But a few moments of awkwardness would’ve been better than a lifetime of regret.
