You know kids can say the damdest things. Sometimes they'll even say things that you'll remember the rest of your life. My son, Paul, told me how emotionally exhausting it was to help take care of my husband for one afternoon. He knows I took care of my husband for days, weeks that turned into months. He said he was very proud of me. That not many people could/would honor their vows that way. It was an honor to take care of my best friend. I couldn't take away his cancer but I could honor his wish not to die in a hospital or care facility. All four kids have told me how proud they are of me and that's what I choose to think about when I question my choices. Thinking back, I would just change the outcome. I know I did my best.
