My friend who has been diagnosed with cancer, has been in a nursing home for a few months. I wanted to go visit her over Memorial Day weekend, but was unable to because I got sick and ended up in the emergency room. So, today, I went to visit her. When I went to her room, there was someone else there. I asked the nurse behind the desk if they moved her. She told me that she passed away earlier in the week.
I felt horrible. I wish i could have at least visited last weekend.
My friend had no family. Her mother and father are dead. She never married. Never had kids, had no brothers and sisters. The few friends she had were all she had. There will be no funeral, probably no grave site. It breaks my heart that she died alone.
You never know when will be the last time you see someone.
