how bad of a person are you?

I’d forgotten that sketch. Thank you.

The post wasn't a formal moderator request. When it is, I'll say "Moderator request" and not curse in the post nor have personal comments in it. No need for you nor Byke to delete/ modify existing posts WRT moderator requests.

Thanks, per my usual, I reviewed every single Mod post in the thread afterwards to make sure I had not missed anything.

As per typical, my first take was correct, his was mistaken.

i was reminded yesterday of how bad I was when I didn't visit my dad when he was on life support.

My excuse was he was brain dead already and I wanted to remember him as he was, not hooked up to a machine.

My two "nieces" few from New Orleans to SFO to bring their mom home from hospice and spend the last few days with her as her body shuts down.

Lung transplant led to major issues included some brain damage post surgery.

Still feel guilty about my non action.

I mean, gone is gone. Meatpiles are just resources with an EUL that expired. The loss of a parent is brutal, but you should feel no guilt about not visiting someone who wasn't home anyway, right?

Your mind is your matter, but that is my take. If the guilt persists, I would suggest you examine either what you wish you had done before they were gone that is actually festering, or who else judged you when you made the choice that is making you feel this. Fundamentally, your choice was solid at its base.

Well he kinda had to back 'er down from the boozy midnight request so the Don S. Tartnon 69'ing could press on.

I think you should not feel guilty.

When I got the call that my Dad had my kids went to the house. In fact my oldest daughter found him and called me. I told her to call the Police and let them know. My son went over to the house. He called me and said the coroner was coming and if I wanted to see Pop I still had time to get home.

I told him I kissed him good bye this AM when he was sleeping (I had moved in to care for him) and I was good with that. It bothered my son a little I think as my Daughter called back to make sure. I was sure. Seeing peacefully sleeping was a good last image.

The whole family was in the hospital room when my Mom passed. It was terrible. All the shrieking females got to me for sure. It was 4:30 in the AM and we had been awake all night. I drove my Dad home knowing he had lost his true life partner. After getting him settled I just went to work. There was no way I was going to get to sleep quickly and getting my head wrapped around the next steps helped me.

I still feel terrible about how my Mom passed. So sorry Mom.

Thanks Bud. Tough stuff to pull from memory and then write about it.

Flipping it around i certainly would not want folks hovering over me in my final minutes.

I hope all the people in my will are around my death bed when I tell a really bad pun, they all groan and I flatline.

I’m thinking the same thing. Dying is a deeply personal experience. The deepest, actually. I want to experience my death without people hanging around and wailing and gnashing their teeth. I want peace and tranquility when i die. I want to slip away quietly into the unknown.

 

[Ridley]

I want to die like my grandfather did, in his sleep. Not screaming and crying like the passengers in his car.

I'm so bad for watching My Worst Ex Ever but the first story was about Wade Wilson. Fascinating.

 

[Doobz]

I'm so bad that I don't enjoy smoking weed anymore because when I self reflect all I see is ugly.

It occurred to me that there's really only one correct answer to this question and it's not in the list.

Leroy Brown.

LOL, I have, but it still isn't LARGE. You were specific.
