It was having to say goodbye to my mother when I new she would die of cancer. She showed me a side of her that I had never seen before. It was a confidence in me and a happiness that she knew I would be loved. That my wife was here to love me. It was like she had accomplished her mission. All of her children were okay, she was very proud of each of us and she could now rest. Sad but beautiful thing.

I can think of several ... but one was leaving my 1st husband and basically taking his son away from him.

Robbie had just turned 4 .... and didn't really understand what was going on. Overall, it was the right move ... but it was still hard.

I thought I had an answer, but after reading your posts, I realized mine paled in comparison. Here is a situation where I learn through your experiences.

When my aunt passed away....she was the 'rock' of the family and I didn't really get to say good by until after the fact.

Dan's mom - I would have loved to had more time with her.

Doc the wonder beagle - I was out of town and still guilty for not being there.
