Recently I said my last goodbye to someone I love. She’s not gone yet, but it was the last chance to see her before the cancer takes her away. The time spent with her, the rest of my family, and the hospice care workers demonstrated yet again what a difficult time we have with death and dying, and especially, talking about it. As the horizon in front of me keeps getting closer than the one behind me, I find myself confronted with the realities of death far too often.
