My aunt Luisa, who lives in San Fernando, is dying. She has lung cancer in terminal stage and is 93 years old.
I wanted very much to go and say good bye to her before my departure to Aruba.
Yesterday, I talked with him saying that I was through with all my doctors and that I wanted to go. He said no way.
I have been thinking about her for weeks and was very sorry that I would not be able to see her again. So today, I made a bold move and called my beautician cousin who has lived with her for decades. As she is the main caregiver of my aunt I asked her if I could go. And she said yes.
Though luck for my cousin Carlos. Women are the new force of the world
I am sure that I will be able to help Juanita and even if my aunt is asleep, I can read a book sitting on a chair near her bed.
All my nearest loved ones have died surrounded by family and love. I like that.
I will go there at least for a day. I´m going during Wednesday.

Sounds like a good plan. We were being blocked from visiting my mother-in-law when she was on her deathbed. We made a surprise visit without asking and were glad we did. She passed before that week was out. We also had a chance to warn her brother's and they all had a chance to visit as well.

Finally I could not go. My cousin knew about it and he called me in rage.

I have the feeling that this will be the last time I see her.

I hope you were able to go see her. I saw this post suggested on the side and realized I missed this one.

@marguicha I did read that your cousin didn't want you to visit.

It's lucky if one is surrounded by loved ones during their last days. Good that you are visiting her before you leave.
