I’m a 22F who was in a relationship with a 56M. I call him my best friend now because we still love each other but have been developing a very strong friendship rather than a romantic relationship. It’s complicated. But anyway,
His parents were older when he was born like mine were and died when he was in his 30’s. My father (59 M) had a non Covid medical emergency last week where he suffered extensive heart damage, possible brain damage, and renal failure. He’s still alive but not doing well.
My best friend throughout all this has sat and talked to me about what to expect during all of this, as his father experienced a very significant medical emergency before he died as well. His experience has helped me process a lot of the pain I’m experiencing by not being able to see my dad, and he has been one of the biggest helps I’ve had so far.
I just appreciate it and realize though we’ve both had our struggles, we come back for each other and to me that’s what you do for people you love.
PS: If you can, hug your partner and those you love for me and tell them you love them for me, ok?
