You can't bring your dad back.

Shut up.

Let me talk.

People talk.

I listen.

We go through the what-ifs.

I give them their due.

Then I have them cross out the what-if and go even if.

Even if dad got a second opinion, he would have died.

Even if.

That's the reality.

Now, if I was talking to your husband, I would especially say this knowing he's a death doula.

I would say to him, I worked for over a decade in a hospital system.

We had in the hospital system, we had the person that would show up early for the appointment.

They would research everything.

They would get second opinions.

They would do everything right, Mel.

And they would still die.

How unfair.

And then we'd have someone else.
