My condolences… I lost my father 3 years ago, he also lived in another country and he was quite sick. I was waiting for his OR to be determined, so I could be there for it, but he suddenly passed away before that… I couldn’t say goodbye, nor do I remember when or what the last telephone call was like. Quite sad about that, but it’s just gone from my memory.
I managed to go to funeral the next day and everything, helping my mom organize a lot of the formalities afterwards, but then I had to travel back for work, then came Corona… so my ability to help her out in those times were very limited, I couldn’t travel. But I’ve managed to find a job where my mother lives and now we’ve located here. I am happy that I am living close to her and manage to pass her home every other day or so…
