Hard to Say Goodbye

Every now and then a patient touches you so much that you are sad to see them go. Recently I was taking care of someone that was going through such hardship, as he had ALS. He was on the steady decline, yet always had a smile, always had a thank you. I was shocked at how well he and his supportive family were handling everything. Such life was there, such love and support.

I was sorry to see him go, even more sorry a special man like that has such limited time left on Earth.
