just another POV..

my mother was in extremely poor health the last year of her life. She in LAS, I in SFO. I roundtripped 10-12 times that year, as "each time might be her last" I don't regret it, but if it's a chronic health situation (like 2 bypasses MIGHT be) it is tough to make that call to jump on a full fare flight...

I was not there whn my mom passed on, and again, I don't regret it.... I feel good that I was there for her in life...
