And that was the last thing I ever said to him.

Seriously (and sadly), I never had the opportunity with my folks because a.) I moved away from home right out of college and 2.) I was traveling for my jobs when they got sick and passed.
There will always be an emptiness there because I couldn't be there for them. Every one of them was the salt of the earth and still inspire me to this day.

(34,136 posts)While in the hospital room of my dying father. I had said something to her daughter about not disturbing Dad and she went off on the whole room - our older sister, Mom, and me. I said nothing to her during that tirade. Mom asked her and her daughter to not touch Dad again and they both stomped out.
The next round, I said nothing but she turned her back on our mother. That was when I resolved to never speak to her again. I did not at our father's funeral or at our mother's funeral. If I can manage it, I will never be in the same room as her again.

The last words I spoke to my brother, in the middle of making funeral arrangements for my mother were:
I wipe my ass with your opinions.

(34,136 posts)That sister has the same personality as Trump and tortured me with her actions all through my childhood. After I moved away from home I interacted with her as little as possible. Before we transferred Dad into hospice care I don't think I addressed a sentence to her. The family talked but I talked to Mom and my older sister about Mom's wishes. The other sister kept talking about how each option would affect her and nothing about how that would affect Mom.
It's been very restful having her out of my life. I talked to a counselor about it and she relieved me of my guilt from cutting her out of my life.
