Chief - that is a powerful and wonderful post. I so agree about not procrastinating and to express your loving feelings whilst you can. To take things for granted is the norm and so easily done.
I was going to say the same as Dawgluver about not beating yourself up. OK you didn't do what you intended but think about all that you have probably done for this friend....the bigger picture. ♥
My mother is close to her final days now in a caring home. Whenever I leave her I am aware it could be the last time I see her so I always tell her I love her. I know she knows that and she responds the same but I think I would give myself a hard time if she died and I forgot to say this the last time I spoke to her.
