I think of this from time to time. It's one of the reasons I went to the hospital last week to see my husband's aunt who is moribund. It was important to me that I could look her in the eye and thank her for always being kind to me.

In the same way we may regret going to a funeral, we'll regret not going to the care center, hospital, hospice house. The family wants to hear the stories. True. How much better to hear them being told to the loved one and watch their eyes glow again.

Great piece as always, Bryce!
