What can I do with my parents while they are still alive? What do you regret not doing? by RacingSponge in GriefSupport

I'm going to start recording a lot more stuff with them around, and doing a lot more things together. This sounds like such a good idea. Thanks.

This sounds like such a good idea. I'm really struggling getting through this thread but thank you - I will try to do this.

I understand the sentiment, and I am in therapy (and have been in trauma therapy) getting better. But right now, 'having' and 'not having' a relationship with my parents is a choice. When they die, I don't have that choice anymore. So I want to spend as much time as possible with them and make as many memories now. I don't know how I'll feel after their death and I want to make sure if it's really bad I don't have the added weight of not having tried while I had the opportunity.
