Reply To: What Would You Undo?

I would take the extra ten minutes(even if I would be pressed for time to get to work on time), to swing by my parents house with the kids one last time, on the day that my father was destined to suffer an unexpected, fatal stroke. At least my children would have seen their Zaidy once more. We were only around the corner from my parents’ house, but I was anxious to get home and change into cleaner clothing after a day of running around with the kids. I will never be able to fully forgive myself for depriving them of that last time with him, because once he was taken to the hospital, it would have been too scary for them to see what he looked like and I didn’t want that to be their last memory of him. I wish I could undo that day.
