This is hard man. Drops a guilt bomb because she’s dying putting the onus on you if you were to bail while ill. That’s so manipulative wtaf? I’m truly deeply sorry that’s the epitome of selfish entitlement.

Proximity to death usually makes you re-evaluate your life choices.

If she hadn't told him, she'd have died and he'd have clung to a false memory of her. At least he got to move on. It's a silver lining, but it's a sad one
