Important post. Thank you for sharing. I have this with a dear friend that passed away about 7 years ago. I didn’t make the effort to go visit her in AZ.
Time goes by in a blink. “I could waste a thousand years” as the song says. But the things that last as memories are when one really makes an effort with people. I didn’t go visit my dad in the nursing home either after he went in in 2016. Not very often. When the staff told my mom he was winding down at the beginning of this past November, we went up to see him a lot for that month. I’m so glad I did. Oh
Thank you again for posting about your dear mentor and friend.
Me, too, but in northern California. At least I got to say good-bye over the phone. She was such an amazing mentor who loved me dearly right to the end. Her bravery was astonishing. May she rest in peace, my friend, Judith Ann Hammond.
