If you could go back in time a month before a loved one died. Would you tell them about their impending death or would you just try to enjoy the time?

I would do everything in my power/control to save them. But if they're in last stage of cancer, sadly there isn't much I can do. In that case, I'd feel helpless and heartbroken. I'd make sure to spend as much time with them as I can. I'd look after them and try to make them smile every single day.

Oh and hi, Chi!! 🙃 It's been a while!!

[ChiTown33]

Greetings and salutations Genie! Hope you're doing well.

[Genie23]

Always nice to see you again and check on you 😇
This year has been pretty hectic. More stressful moments than calm/happy moments. So, I can't wait for it to be over, lol. My father is recovering, though. So, that's something I feel relieved about. Feeling hopeful about next year! How've you been? 😯

Omg, wasn't there a movie or show like that? I really don't know what I'd do. I'd prolly be so stressed and anxious and such a neurotic mess about the whole thing that after sleepless nites with excessive drinking I would stumble blindly out into the road and get hit by a truck.

I would just try to enjoy the time with them. It would be cruel to tell someone of their impending death, and it would ruin what little time they had left.

[ChiTown33]

Possibly you could alter time though by telling them? There's no right or wrong to this question. Just curious what other people would do.

[msc545]

I sincerely wish there was a way to alter time as you suggest, but I also know that at least at this point in time there is no way to alter it. It marches on whether we like it or not. Sadly.

Enjoy the time with them. Assuming that going back in time and telling them wouldn’t change their fate. My two knew their time was coming already. It was me that was in denial or shock or whatever it was.
