It's especially true if you're taking care of a dying my family member. They will pass and then suddenly you have time to remember all the things you did wrong, or said out of exhaustion and frustration, and you won't be able to apologize. Truth is none of those things matter. What matters most is you did the best you can for them and that you were just there for them.

This is so true that it can only be known by experience. And you will carry the mental burden (unavoidable) for the rest of your life, though with the passage of time it does get easier.
